To ALL who loved ANDREW,

I heard the very sad news about Andy passing away.

It shocked me and both my daughters, Charlotte and Ellen. We were aware that he had Lukemia, Robbie and Mary Lou told us that a Donor had be found, and progress made in his health. How ever, it was not to be. It is Unfair, that he is No longer with you all. A waste of a very nice man. I wish you strength in time to come, as you will need it.

I have very nice memories of Andrew, , many years ago, about 37, we were burgelared at St.Stephens Ave. Jock (his uncle, and my late husband) was away in England, I was home alone with Charlotte, only being a few months old. ANDY came several nights to stay with me ( as I was scared) he was only still a school boy, but I felt much safer with him being with us.
Jock , at one stage dressed a bit Hippy like, and Andy loved Jock's clothes, and we gave them all to him to wear, as well as our Scuba gear. Which Andy used till he could afford some better ones himself. He was a lovely sporty, spontaneous man.

An other very nice memory is, that when we lived in England, we had organised a party with his parents as well as my mother and other Ferrier relations. in a castle in a small village, where the London train stopped.
Without our knowledge, Andy also came, even more astonishing, he was in the same train, opposite Ellen (they did not know each other), and when we waited at the station to collect Ellen, Andy was there as well.
The party was a big success, thanks to many Ferriers , being there, young and old, and Andy kept us well entertained.
I had a long talk with him and his children , 8 years ago, when All the N.Z. Ferriers came to England. Sadly that was the last time I have been in touch.

I hope you ALL keep the good memories, that is what is important to get you through sad times.
Hug to you ALL, from The English Ferriers.
Anneke, Charlotte and Ellen.

Such a sad loss for all of us. You were such a sincere and lovely guy Andy and I loved your humour. I have tried to move heaven and earth to be at your funeral, but sadly am unable to. Not a moment has gone by since I learnt of your death that you have not been in my thoughts. You will so be the focus of my thoughts on Monday. Enjoy what the powers that be have installed for you as I have absolutely no doubt it will be something amazing. Thinking of you Dave, Ange, Rob and Lisa. xxx
