Today we will say our farewells until we meet again my friend, it will be one of the hardest things we'll have to do but we know there's no more suffering and you are at peace with your greatest love... Words can't begin to express how sincerely sorry I am for the Granatir family loss... Andy holds a special place in my heart... I'll treasure our memories always... from welcoming me into the neighborhood many many years ago, to telling me all the need to know history of my house and neighbors, to drives to here and there, to learning some Slovak, daily visits, to random calls/messages... My deepest sympathy goes out to you all and I thank you for allowing me to be there for him in his time of need... if there is ever anything you guys need you know where I am and how to get ahold of me. Rest easy my dear friend... you truly are missed... Thank you for 16 plus years of friendship/neighbor hospitality...

My deepest sympathy goes out to Andy's family. Andy loved my daughter (Jennifer Layman) and her family. He would stop and talk to all of us when we was at Jennifer's. He was a great gentleman and will be missed. Praying for you all.
