He passed away on January 12, 2017. For those who knew him he was a very likable person that gave to the community. Andy was a member of the Anciano Choir. He enjoyed singing so much that he even reached out and sang for incarcerated inmates at the Delta prison with Kairos of Colorado.

He was a member of the Knights of Columbus for 36 years—an honorary lifetime member, Council 1062, a 4th degree member of Assembly #1519.
