Andy

May 19, 2011

My darling Andy went to be with Jesus at 4.15pm today.

He was surrounded by both our families and our best friends. I kissed him, and told him that I loved him, that I’d miss him, that we’d look after each other. And that it was time for him to go home, Jesus was waiting for him. I prayed over him, and he slowly, peacefully stopped breathing.

He was a wonderful man, and I feel indescribably blessed to have been married to him for one year, ten months and a day. I can’t express how much I’m going to miss him.

  7. I found Andy’s blog last year and havent been on for a while. I am so sorry for your loss. Andy has given me true inspiration. 3 years ago I had pretty much the same surgery as Andy. I am a Dh racer also and was thinking of getting out of the Pro Dh class after my surgery but Andy gave me the inspiration to stick with it.I am 43 and never stop learning and finding inspiration in others….like your Andy.
    God Bless you Ses,

  8. My name is Paul, and I am the Webmaster for the Ostomy Armor web site. I began this journey with Gordo, the creator of OA, gratis and grateful to be helping someone who would be helping so many people. I was always arms length until today, -yes, I’m a month and more late with my condolences, and I apologize for that- but this affected me far more than I expected. I’m not speaking for Gordo or Ostomy Armor for this part.

    For this next, I am…

    Is there anything you would like to have put up on Andy’s web page to celebrate his life? http://www.ostomyarmor.com/andy.php . He sent us these pictures a while back, not more than a year, I think, and his email about the product, and the web page will represent his life, unless you would like it taken down. You may contact me at webmaster@ostomyarmor.com and either I will respond, personally, or I will forward the email to Gordo.

    Again, I am sorry for your loss.

    ~Paul
