Kathy, Zoe, Andy's parents and family,
We were shocked and saddened to hear of Andy's sudden passing. He was a bright, charismatic, charming man and I know he will be missed dearly. His death ripples through the community in ways you may not be able to imagine, and his legacy will last in the community for the long run. It's heartbreaking to lose someone so young, vibrant and brilliant. We surround you with love, care and hope while we grieve alongside you.

Dear Gary, Bonnie & Family: I want to send you my deepest & heartfelt sympathy in the loss of your precious son, Andy. God chose a lovely flower to adorn His beautiful heavenly garden. I can only imagine what a great man he was in all his human relationships. Donna & I are praying for all of you.
I have many wonderful memories of Andy. Of course, most of those came in context of my relationship with him as his basketball coach at JB.
Andy was a dedicated, hardworking and enthusiastic member of the team. He was a great teammate who encouraged everyone to do their best.. He was an outstanding point guard. He was talented, smart and very coachable. He was a winner who gave everything he had on & off the court. It was a privilege and honor to be his coach.
The legacy he leaves to his family, friends and co-workers will last forever. Andy will never be forgotten.
We send much love to each of you.
May God bless you & watch over you.
Coach Heckman

There are always people you meet in life that make an unforgettable impression and impact. Andy was certainly one of those people.
I met Andy in elementary school, and we were classmates through graduation. I won’t ever forget how kind Andy was, no matter what “group” of people you were in. He was always so talented and competitive. I remember going head to head with him so many times, trying to get the highest grade, or to be the first to finish a project. I’ll admit, he probably came out ahead more than I did. I remember him holding himself with great accountability, even when we were very young. He was honest and genuine. I can’t recall one time, in all the years that we knew one another, that he treated anyone in an unkind manner. Andy was truly a genuinely great person, and I’m thankful to have known him growing up.
I haven’t seen Andy since high school, but am not surprised that he built a beautiful life. I always knew he would. Andy wasn’t designed to be anything less than a great success in his life.
My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends, as I can’t even begin to imagine the magnitude of this loss for you. I can only offer my prayers and love. May his unforgettable smile live on in the hearts of all of those his life has touched.

I haven’t seen Andy in many years, yet I am distraught to learn of his passing. Andy was a wonderful part of my twenties, in that time between college and adulthood when you are figuring out who you are. He taught me how to cook steak and how to ski. He could bake an amazing bread pudding and stretch a budget to make a ski trip dinner into something gourmet for an entire houseful of people. He was a gentleman and an incredibly fun person with a terrific smile. Everyone should be fortunate enough to have someone like Andy in their lives. I will miss him. I am so very sorry for the loss to his family.

Andrew - it's impossible for me to imagine you not being a part of the next big event. We shared so many good times together, every one of them special to me. Whether it was a trip to NYC to see a ballgame, Penn St., U2, or an annual trip to some NCAA tournament venue, or an extended ski trip out west - these things were only the backdrop. The real experience was time with you. Your smile and laughter were contagious. The joy with which you lived your life is something you shared with all of your friends - we became family. I want you to know that you can't escape that easily. There isn't an event to come that you will not be a part of. Every time we raise a glass or exchange hugs, you will be in our hearts. The footprint you have left behind, the impact you have had on the people you care about, the impact you have had on me, is truly immeasurable. The pain I feel in losing you is outweighed only by the joy I have had in knowing you and the honor I have had in spending some incredible times with you. Rest in peace my friend.

Michael, I am Andy's aunt, Bonnie's sister. Your tribute to Andy is absolutely beautiful and I thank you for all your kind and wonderful words as it helped to lift my aching heart. I believe that this horrible grief is the price we pay for the great love we have for someone, but we wouldn't give up that love for anything.

I was saddened to hear about Andy. I have been reminded today of many great memories of being kids, playing baseball together, and going to school together. One of my favorite memories of him was him hitting that big hook shot from the baseline with the whole other team guarding him in high school. It was a classic Angle move. Andy was always kind to everyone. I am praying for all of you. Corey Gardenhour

Oh, Andrew. Sweet, pleasant, handsome, kind Andrew. I had the pleasure of working with Andy for years in Massachusetts. My heart breaks for his family and friends. No parent should have to bury their child, this I know from experience. May his kind and energetic spirit live on in those who remain. Heartfelt condolences to all who loved him. Rest in Eternal Peace, Andrew. -- Carol Stolicny

We met only on face book. Being his mother's cousin, and being raised far from them it was my great joy to meet the Angle family, to visit their home. To know that you are related by blood, to such wonderful, kind people.
It's a feeling of joy, and gratitude only one's who've had that particular experience can appreciate.
Andy was a kind, thoughtful, gracious man. Sharing recipes on the internet. Offering joyful congratulations on the birth of a new grandchild. His bright, inherent goodness shined through his words and actions. I'm a heartfully sorry for this tragic loss to our family. I am eternally grateful to God for allowing me to connect, and for the pain our family feels right now, for that too is a reflection of the love this good man garnered, and grew. I know in time we shall all be reunited. I await that day, knowing goodness and light shall be on that shore. God Bless You All. God Bless this family.
