Requiem
The sky is empty, where are you?
I search and yet do not see.
Do you rise yet again, a whirling dervish,
a dust devil ascending?
Is your voice now the plaintive cry
of a hawk rising up and calling out
come fly with me, I am not gone?
I will search the sky and perhaps someday
will see you again among the clouds smiling
as you are more than just a fond but sad memory.

I am sorry to hear that Andy has passed. He called me for help with his Glide Navigator II software and old Compaq Aero 1500 PDAs from time to time. He was a friendly person and a character. He often made me laugh. He will be missed.

I had not seen Andy in years and have often wondered how he was holding up.

Flashback to 2011 or so. I land at Seminole the day after the Seniors, straight-out from Homestead in my 1-35. Andy shakes his head and sez "It's too early in the year for a flight like that". I say "Andy, tell the truth - it's ALWAYS too early in the year for a flight like that!".

Only time I got a laugh out of him.
