So very sad to lose such a lovely brother in law who was so close to Micky, more like a brother.
I have such lovely memories of all our times together in Kent and the many holidays we spent together. You will be missed so very much and will never be forgotten. With all my love Rosie x

Miss you so much uncle Andy,
You have left such a void in all our lives. All my happy (and some sad) times feature you. I loved hearing all your stories and your trips down memory lane. I loved how close and supportive you were to Dad - your bestie Mick; more like brothers than in laws.
You were such a devoted husband to auntie Maureen and took such good care of her and Coral - so proud to call you my uncle - despite the fact that you teased me so much and loved greeting me "hello ugly" and telling me to lay off the ugly fruit and was I going to be busy at halloween haunting houses and scaring kids ! (I hope it was banter and you weren't serious.) You loved telling me I was just like your Renee too.
All your close family miss you so much. Maureen, Loraine, Steve, Coral, Mark, Jo, Sarah, Luke, Ava, Archie, Charlie and Jacob were so very lucky to have you and our thoughts are with them all at this very sad time. With our love Stacy and Chris x

Darling Uncle Andy, I miss you so much, you were such an important part of my life. All my happy (and some sad) times feature you. I loved listening to your stories and talking about all your yesterdays. It was heartwarming how close and supportive you were to Dad - your bestie Mick - more like brothers than in laws.
I'll miss your "hello ugly" greetings and telling me I am just like your Renee - and your banter about me being busy at halloween haunting houses and scaring kids (I hope it was banter and you weren't serious). You were so devoted to Auntie Maureen and took such good care of her and Coral - a wonderful husband and dad. You've left a big hole in our lives.
Maureen, Loraine, Steve, Coral, Mark, Jo, Sarah, Luke, Ava, Archie, Charlie and Jacob were very lucky to have you and they are in our thoughts at this very sad time.
With all our love Stacy and Chris xx
