Andy attended New York University, where he received a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and a Master’s degree in Labor Relations. He retired from NM Dept. of Labor. Andy became a diabetic at the age of 14, but it didn’t keep him from doing what he enjoyed. He was a self-taught harmonica and accordion player. Andy also had a beautiful tenor voice. He played his harmonica everywhere he went, stores, churches, restaurants, family gatherings and special events at Costco. Andy was a kind and humble man. He would always encourage young people to get an education. Andy was a member of a choral and band group at Palo Duro Senior Center. He was also a member of Risen Savior Catholic Church and The Knights of Columbus.
