I always talked to him at the Dallas Show - he was such a kind man. He and I had a couple conversations on the phone since Dallas and he told me that he was not long for this world.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered "come to me". With tearful eyes I watched you, and saw you pass away. Although I loved you dearly, I could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke my heart to prove to me...he... only takes the best...Until We Meet Again Old Friend....♥I Love & Miss You! Brother Andy, Rev.Dr(R).♫Howie♫.
Rest In Peace My Friend...♫Howie♫

This is so sad. He was a genuine dear friend to me. Condolences to his loved ones, family and friends alike. He will be missed terribly. The lights always became just a little bit brighter when Andy walked into the room. Go with God Andy, and may you Rest In Peace.
