As did I, Sinc. At least he had a chance to do his final commentary and go off in the manner he chose. May he RIP.

Aww. Too Bad. I'll miss him. I felt like I "knew" him because he was so genuine in his essays.

R.I.P. Andy.

I watched his final 60 minutes a few weeks ago. He didn't look great, but it was a nice farewell.
