Andrew was a very good buddy of mine, and he will be missed immensely by me, my family, and his family and friends. He loved his family, and supported them in a way that a real man should. He also served purpose to help those who needed it. He was a champion at heart who will live in our memories for a long time. His life was short, but not lived in vain. -Haquan Wright
