I had a modest business relationship with him but did not know him well. Seemed like a good guy. Sorry to see him go.
Charles -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Purdy Sent: Friday, February 24, 2017 5:49 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Passings With deepest sorrow, I regret to say that David Andrews, my friend of 23 years, has passed on, losing his battle with pancreatic cancer. He was a prolific poster, and worked with Share HLASM in the 80's and 90's. Our daughters grew up together; we attended each other daughter's graduations and celebrated their many accomplishments; he madly danced at my wedding. He was widely known in the NW Orlando area as "the guy on the Segway that makes me smile", with thousands of miles on both Segways, used to commute to work, and he was always willing to ride with a friend. David had a ready wit that made the years a treat. He was an outstanding mentor, boss, and friend. Nothing would please him more that hoisting a shot of whiskey, with the toast: "To absent friends and family". He will be dearly missed.
