Andy’s family meant the world to him. He is survived by his parents Jeffrey and Patricia Ford; life partner Christine Stewart; his brother William (Danielle) Ford and their children Elijah, Margaux and Grant. He also leaves behind many beloved aunts, uncles and cousins. Andy is predeceased by his loving grandparents William and Myrtle Ford, Richard and Shirley Renkawitz and his uncle Charles Folsom.
Andy enjoyed nature, animals, hockey and “reading/studying” historical non-fiction. He took pride in his book collection. He is a graduate of SUNY Geneseo where he majored in Business Management and played four years on the Men’s Hockey team.
