George Andrews Obituary

You were a good friend. You helped me through some very difficult times. I will miss you. Thalia

George was always very positive and considerate to people in the Chicago sports community and in all walks of life. It was good seeing him outside the locker rooms at Bulls games and in other sports and entertainment settings in Chicago or to talk with him on the phone.
George seemed to genuinely root for the success of others such as I - even if he had no business relationship with them. He was always available and helpful in the early years of WSCR Radio, The Score.
George Andrews never "big-timed" anyone despite his famous work for Magic Johnson and countless NBA players. He truly walked with kings yet kept the common touch (paraphrasing Kipling).

GEORGE ANDREWS WAS AN ICON-AS AN
ELMHURST YORK HIGH ALUM

HE WAS GREAT FOR THE NBA AND FOR
THE KIND WAY HE TREATED SO MANY OTHERS..

IAM BLESSED TO HAVE KNOWN GEORGE..

I am proud to call George my friend. Since I was a sophomore in high school. He had the keys to the gym. He helped me with all types of things. I helped him when I could. I will miss him.

I have so many fond memories of my time working with George and family at Andrews & Andrews. We had so much fun at 155 N Michigan Ave. George was always so kind and generous to me and he will always have a special place in my heart. My sincere condolences to his family.

George, As your brother in law, you truly treated me like a beloved brother, taking me under your loving guidance and inspiring me to pursue a 40 year custom home audio video career by trusting me with Magic Johnson as my first client in 1984. Your heart to serve and guide others was boundless, your sharp wit was hilarious. You blazed a trail as one of the pioneering "superstar" sports agents writing exceptionally innovative contracts. What I will remember most about you George is what our good friend John Costacos stated so eloquently "your heart was bigger than you were". A deep loss felt by many, rest in peace George, may your memory be eternal!

I love ya man! You took me and my son to his first bulls' game in your sky box. a treat that he will always remember as the Bulls beat Utah in the payoffs. You were the kindest of friends willing to give others the shirt off your back if they needed it. What can I say but, I will miss you!

George was always mindful of family / friends.

May your Memory be Eternal

George Andrews, Rest in peace my friend. Bill Pollak

George, You were a true and genuine person who will be missed by all who knew you. Rest in peace my friend.

It has truly been a joy to know you, George, since we were kids growing up in Brynhaven in Elmhurst. With all of the success you earned in your adult career, you remained the same down to earth person that you were as a child...warm, gregarious, funny and kind! Ron and I thoroughly enjoyed sharing our many strolls down memory lane with you at the 1967 York High School class reunions. You will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts, dearest George.

May God bless you and keep you in his loving arms eternally.

Love Always, Lindy and Ron Stedman

Beloved George, you have been the closest to a brother that I have ever had, and you leave a gaping hole in all of our hearts. Memory eternal, memory eternal.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
