Beautifully put, Sean. I didn’t know Andy well, but there was a period of about 4-5 years where he and I would both be at the weekly Echo Park dinners organized by Tom Vickers and Bob Merlis. We didn’t really vibe at first, but when I finally made him laugh with one of my Johnny Rivers stories it felt like I’d hit a home run - and once that ice was broken, he would always take time to pull me aside on our way out of the restaurant and share one of his hilarious stories with me. I wish I remembered more of them, but I will always remember his laughter. Rest in Peace, Andy.

Old Man Dinner! I heard many stories about those nights.
This is a lovely tribute, Sean. Sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss, Sean.
Thanks Jim.
