Andrea visiting me with Michelle, her lovely daughter that she is so proud of -- she is with us still you know.  My best friend and sister forever who I will always treasure.   She raised a lovely family, one that is very special to me.  Love you all!

I worked with Andrea at Lifesize from the beginning days at Lifesize.   I learned so much from her and had so much fun getting to talk to her when she made her visits to Austin.   Always in tow with some kind of thank you gift.    Words cannot express the sorrow and sadness I feel at the loss of Andrea!   

It is my prayer that God will comfort your whole family during this sad time.  

The Celebration of Life for our beloved Andrea revealed her beauty and brought to life what an incredible and awe-inspiring woman she was.  The family members, Jim, James and Michelle, did a tribute that allowed everyone there to really understand what made her special.  
I know she was up there, looking down from heaven, so proud of her family, and, of course, wishing she was still on this earth and with you all.  She was the most intelligent, kind, strong and accomplished person I’ve ever known.  I learned so much from her, and I treasure every moment I was able to spend with her, even if it was just on the phone.  We spoke almost every day, although we lived in different parts of the country during most of our treasured friendship.  I love you Andrea, I know that you know that, and I know that you loved me as well.  Thank you for sharing your family with me, their ups and downs, and for always being there to listen and be my special friend and sister.  I know that you are still there watching out for all of us, and I will join you one day in heaven, when God takes me, and I will give you the biggest hug ever.  
In the meantime, I am here for Michelle, James, and Jim as I know you would want me to be and, of course, I want to be.  They are an extension of you, your love and, therefore, mine.  You and Jim raised an amazing family, and I know how proud you are of both Michelle and James.  Jim, you are a special man, and she loved you dearly.  
We were and will always be sisters and soul mates and I will continue to talk to her everyday even if it is one sided, but it won’t be.  I will watch over her family as she would ask me to and will always be there for every single one of them.  I love you Michelle, James and Jim!  I am always there for you, please know that.  I am so proud of everyone of you!  You have the strength of your mother and wife for sure!

First time I met Andrea, we were peers at Lifesize and I said to myself "Man, this lady from New York is tough!"   As I got to know Andrea, I realized that she was caring, thoughtful and open to help anyone that asked.   I became closer to her as her time with the company came to an end and I miss my conversations with her which revolved mostly around non-work related topics.   I feel for her family as I am sure she will be missed.   You are in my prayers.   

Andrea Apatini-Ferguson was a phenomenal lady. I had the privilege of working with her from 2010 - 2018. During our time together and after I changed jobs, she was a constant mentor, great listener, awesome friend and so much more. Let me express my sincerest condolences to the Apatini and Ferguson families. I wish you all the best in mourning and celebrating Andrea's life. God bless you all! 

Sharing a lovely picture of Andrea - she was a lovely lady. 
Deepest condolences to your family at this challenging time. 
A memory of her smiling - an Angel 

I only briefly met you with James. You beamed with love surrounded by your family. Your love lives on through them. 

I have known Andrea since I was a girl, and many years later, had the pleasure of working with her at PictureTel in New York City.  I respected Andrea’s thoughtfulness and intelligence and  always enjoyed her sense of humor and quick smile.  Andrea’s parents were dear friends with my parents and I remember our gatherings years ago with fondness.  I was deeply saddened to hear of Andrea’s passing and send my heartfelt condolences  and wishes of peace to her beloved family as they remember and celebrate her life.  
With much love and deepest sympathy,
Eva Pozsonyi-Teller

Andrea was an intelligent, lovely, and loving woman. She loved music. I was in a band with her for 7 years where she played organ, guitar, bass, drums and sang lovely lead! Nothing was greater than her love of family. So proud of her children (James & Michelle) and her beautiful Granddaughters (Georgia & Eliza) and her loving husband Jim. She was so supportive to my wife as she battled tongue cancer for 11 years and provided support to me as well. She was a true friend.  My deepest condolences to her wonderful family.

My dearest one, only incredibly very close to me, sister Andrea. 
Although I feel your spirit, I so profoundly miss your presence, but I know you are here with us in heart with our Mom and Dad. From our immediate family of four, Dad Gyula, Mom Maria, Sister Andrea Brother Jules, I am the only one left still roaming this world. The three of you are here only in spirit, and I feel you and hope you feel me too. Our whole family still on earth is also special to me as they were to you. I will never forget and cherish the time we spent together in our mutual music interests, including our rock band "The Fugitives." After that, we created our beautiful own immediate families who miss your presence so profoundly.  I Will Always LOVE you very much and keep you in my heart and especially in my soul. RIP my only and beautiful Sister Andrea.
