My condolences to the rest of the family. When I was little we knew Andy as Uncle Nat but when he came back into our lives he preferred to be called Uncle Andy. He was an eccentric and interesting man who had more stories, especially about the family, than I can ever possibly remember. He made us laugh and when we would visit he went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. A truly good spirit and a man who accepted himself just as he was. I enjoyed the time I spent around him and he will be greatly missed.
