Andre was a good egg who always stuck to his guns and always insisted on doing the right thing, with considerable success. His famously short fuse made him vulnerable to troll attacks, and those responsible should reflect on that and perhaps feel shame. Remember the year of pain that followed when Andre's stewardship of IDE suddenly ended? My lasting memory of Andre will always be, sitting around his comfortable home in the rolling hills above San Francisco, waxing poetic about all that is right and wrong with life, the universe and the ATA standard.
