Andy was my 8 year old sons god father ,he was the most loving and electric personality .. always had a great time with him when he came home to visit the family in massachusetts . having you close in our lives was special .we will miss the smile, all the laughs and good times that will always be in our hearts. As Dillon gets older we will always have many stories to tell him the late night partys, holidays , the vacations and all the best times we had to enjoy…we are all deeply sad of your passing…we miss you and love you always love the McCarthys

I’m very sorry for your loss. Yet despite the sadness of his passing I’m reminded that he is one person who has left the Earth a better place than he found it – his on screen character was always humorous, and so he’s left a wide legacy of laughter that will endure for a very long time.
Best wishes to you and your family.

I am genuinely sad to hear of Andy’s passing. He was a highlight for me in Angel. His one liner barbs would often have me in stitches. A talented and generous man who has enriched many.
My prayers are with him and his family
