There is a four page thread on the Delta forum devoted to him.

Trashy article, it does not do his wonderful personality, humor, love of travel and contributions to FlyerTalk justice. I wish there was something better you could have linked to. Many don't even think its suicide, something else, but I wish we could talk about other things here than those details.

I too just realize this was Andrew. I never knew he was Rita Hayworth's grandson. How painfully sad. We work out a different gyms now but occassionally I'd see him on the street and we would talk.
He was also so sweet and warm and could always light up the moment. No matter what was on your mind Andrew could make you feel amazing good for at least the moment.
He seemed happy but I do know he had some substance issues at one time.
He will be missed.

I'm pretty broken up about this... I've lost another friend far too young.

oh, yeah, I saw this elsewhere; I didn't think the original article was too offensive but whatever - I didn't know him (and didn't know he was a member here until just now), but it's always sad when someone so young passes, esp. with someone who seemed to have so many advantages from Day One.
