Andy and I put a million miles crusing it seems in his BIG OLDSMOBILE. It was a tank,4 doors, and there were times I was hoping the TANK would stop, he had a LEAD FOOT! I think it is was in welding class with him, that I thought I had turn in a great weld and when he and I took our plates up to the teacher ( Jack?), the tearcher said my plate looked like a turkey took a dump on it . as it had splatter all over it and Andy laught until he had tears in his eyes.  RIP, gone way to soon and will be missed by many and thank you for the memories we made.

smileyMy husband, Jim Dozler was one of his close friends in school.  Jim told me stories of them getting into trouble from Andy upsetting others and being shorter ...he would start the confrontations, then leave ! LOL.   Jim's mother would be glad that he would go out with me inside of Jim's high school  group !   They seems to have fun together during high school years!     Jim didn't keep in touch with him.   My his wife, children be comfort during these days.

Sorry to hear about Andy's passing. We went to school together at Mt. George Elementary School, Silverado Jr. High, and Napa Senior High. I remember going over to his house, on Green Valley Road, to play. He had great parents and a close family. He played on the basketball team at Silverado. Nice guy, lots of energy and full of fun. I haven't seen him since high school. RIP old friend.

Andy lived near me, and we rode the school bus together. A very nice person. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I'll never forget his sheepish grin. :D
