Andy was a veteran of WWII, and after the war he spent many years in Bend, Oregon with his wife and three daughters. Sadly and for reasons known only to himself, Andy chose to drink himself to death, causing his family much grief. His remains were cremated and his ashes strewn on his parents' grave.
As boys, he and my father Archie Pounds were very close, and about 1990 Archie remembered Andy with these words: "I don't even want to think about it. Me and Andy was always close. There wasn't half a year difference in our ages. That guy could have been anything he wanted to be--had opportunity, talent, brains, personality, looks, athletic ability. [He strikes the table with his fist.] It makes me sick to think of it."
