Andrew was a force for good. A kind and generous man, whose company I would love to have enjoyed more often.

Our condolences to Andrew's family and friends at this difficult time. On behalf of all the patients and staff at St Leonard's Hospice thank you for kindly choosing the Hospice to receive donations in memory of Andrew and thank you to all those who have kindly donated. We are forever grateful for the generosity that is shown to us, without which the work of the Hospice would not be possible. Thank you for honouring the memory of Andrew in such a thoughtful manner and in turn, helping us to continue caring for others. With warmest regards, Amanda In Memory Supporter Care

So sorry I won't be able to attend the service, but I'm pleased to have known Andrew, even though it was only through Instagram. I considered him a friend and will miss him. He was a kind, cultural, humorous person with great integrity, and I hope to see his incredible books one day. He very generously sent me a poem and print, which hangs on the wall of my writing shed. I will treasure it forever and think of him often as I write my poems. My thoughts are with his family and friends. Love to you all.

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Andrew. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
