"Andy" also had a passion for old cars, and along with his brother Julius, restored a 1952 FORD pickup truck and a 1940 FORD convertible.
Once retired he spent many hours in his workshop creating Windsor chairs, candle stands, low boys and a roll-top desk.

Survivors are his wife "Jodi". Two daughters by marriage, Leah Cady (Dennis) of Tucson, Arizona and Celeste Cohen (Mark) of Lutz, Florida. Six grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. One sister, Helen Haught (Wayne) Weimer, Texas.
