Thanks, that means a lot to us, and I know it will to Andy's family.

Never knew the guy but this is sad news and an awful time of year for it to happen. Best wishes to his family.

Coping with a loss is never easy, especially at this time of year when the general focus is on having a good time.

My Dad died the night before Xmas Eve in 1989, which pretty much killed off my enjoyment of Christmas for good.

Life is so utterly fragile, you really have no idea until you see how easily a cornerstone of your life can be yanked out of place.

'Bless, mate.

*Hugs Mark*

Koworld said it first. But so say we all.

So sorry to read this today. My thoughts go out to all who remember him. Just to echo the other posts offering a wreath from yakyak.

*hugs*

Terribly sad news. I didn't know Andy well, but what little I knew I liked. Mark, please send all of our condolences to his family.

We should definitely do something for the funeral. He will be missed.

Cheers
Chris

Nothing much I can add to what's already been said. A sad loss and a sad day.

I've played him at Halo2 quite a few times, he seemed like a thoroughly nice bloke and I'll miss his presence when I get back to playing this new year.

My sympathies are with anybody who new him well, my heart and hugs go out to you.

I'd be more than happy to chip in for a wreath (or whatever seems appropriate) to send to his funeral. Just say how and when.

I've offered a little prayer, after my own fashion. He will not be forgotten.

Condolences and fluffy thoughts to his family and friends

And another vote for a wreath, if appropriate

My condolences to the family.

Nothing more I can say really.

I can offer nothing that hasn't already been said more eloquently.

My condolences.
