Just wanted to thank everyone for their amazing messages for Andy and to all for attending his service whether in person or virtually. It's a real pleasure for us as a family to know he had such wonderful friends and colleagues. I am thanking you also on behalf of our mum Glenys who sadly due to her dementia, is unable to do so herself. Also, we'd love to thank Kate and all the team at G Seller for their exemplary service and help before and during Andy's service. You've all made a shocking event a moving and fitting tribute to Andy. Thanks with love from Glenys, Nikki, Roman and Vinnie and all Andy's family Xx

I had a pleasure of meeting Andy through work at EE and BT. What a joy it was to be able to work alongside him. I will always remember and miss you Andy.

RIP Andy.

I served with Andy at RAF Gütersloh in Puma and Chinook Servicing Flight and we worked together at Orange. His sense of humour always shone through and we had many laughs together. He was a first class avionics technician and supported our team with setting up links and other equipment required by the field teams.
He went onto the planning teams in a number of organisation and this true gentleman will be sadly missed.
Blue skies Andy.

Andy was a member of East Midlands Model Club for 20+ years.
A stalwart of the Clubs' Annual Model shows in Hinckley, a committee member, and very well known as a key member of the 'Away Team' representing the EMMC in his 'Wide Load' T-shirt.
He was always patient, with a knack of closing differences with a tactful factual summary.
A Former RAF & Falklands veteran, he has given film & photo shows of his time in service, and in Saudi, an authority on RAF & Falklands topics, as well as Chinooks and Tonkas.
A well respected friend, he leaves big shoes and a 'Wide Load' T-shirt gap to fill.
He will be missed.

During his career with us at BT, Andy played a pivotal role as one of the main problem solvers on the modernization project. His expertise, guidance, and unwavering dedication were invaluable assets to the team. His insights and advice were not only sought after but relied upon, making a significant impact on our collective efforts. Beyond his professional capabilities, Andy's warmth, kindness, and genuine concern for others endeared him to all. He was a pillar of strength and support, always ready to lend a helping hand or a listening ear. His presence brightened our days, and his absence will be keenly felt. Andy leaves behind a legacy of excellence, compassion, and camaraderie. Though he may no longer walk among us, his spirit will continue to inspire and guide us. In his memory, let us strive to emulate his kindness and dedication, keeping his legacy alive in our hearts and actions. Andy will be sorely missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. May they find solace in the fond memories we shared with Andy and the impact he made on our lives.
