Debbie, and family, so sorry for your loss. Andy was an inspiration to me as a kid, six or seven years younger than him. I loved to watch him wrestle. I remembered he had a very distinct walk that I would try to mimic from time to time. It's nice to know that he enjoyed his family and loved them. My prayers are with you.

Our heart felt condolences and prayers to the family and friends of dear Andy.

Always there to help family and friends whenever he could. When you were around there was always laughter and joking.

I have always loved the song Vince Gill wrote when his brother went to be with the Lord, "Go Rest High On That Mountain" and so I say to you dear Andy. Go rest high on that mountain with mom, dad, Ricky, and baby Ricky. You all are loved and will be deeply missed.

Till we meet again!!!!

I went to school with Andy and Debbie. They were an adorable couple and he was so devoted to her. I am saddened to hear of his passing. I pray that Debbie and the family can find peace and comfort during this time of loss. Deepest condolences.
