As I am currently out of town, I am sorry that I could not attend the services for Andy. However, I did want to take this opportunity to express my condolences to all of Andy’s friends & family.

Since we grew up down the block from each other, it seems as though I’d known Andy all my life. Based on that history I can honestly say that I had always known Andy to be a good friend to me, a good son to his parents and a good brother to his siblings.

Although I had moved out of Chicago a while back, I used to run into Andy on occasion when I had business down at the Daley Center. Those chance meetings fascinated me in the way that our connection always seemed to pick-up right where it had left off years before. I guess that was because Andy never saw people as former friends, just friends that he had not seen in a while.

Actually, the last time I spent any real time with Andy was when I was driving down Milwaukee Ave at Bryn Mawr and noticed Andy walking into the Mil-Mar (?) bar and grill. If I remember correctly, Andy was working there at the time. We spent an hour or so getting caught up and Andy seemed very satisfied with his life as a Cook County Deputy Sheriff with a new wife.

While I’m very sad to hear that Andy has passed, I am glad to know that Andy seemed quite content with where life had taken him.

Andy will be missed.

Andy, you will be missed. May everyone who knew you be comforted by your memory during this difficult time.

January 12, 2011

I wish to express my sincere condolences to the Wise family. Andy was a great guy and a very good Deputy Sheriff. I had the privilege of training Andy at the Cook County Sheriff´s Training Academy. He is one of my more memorable Recruits. I will always carry fond memories of him with me. I also express my condolences to his co-workers. I am sure that they will miss him much. The Department has lost a good Officer.
