To my friend Andy; I will miss the laughter, wit, charm and most of all the tete-a-tete barbs (no pun intended) we threw at each other, laughing til my sides hurt. The baseball games, socials, 2000 year old man, humour that seemed to go over everbody's head, yet we knew, and laughed all the more. You are gone too soon, man. If it was meant to be on that day, I am heartened by the fact we talked, renewed before you went. I have no more to say, memories will carry everybody on. Good bye my friend. Randy. - Posted by: Randy Gustafson (Friend) on: Aug 09, 2006
