I met Andreas many years ago. I knew very quickly that Andreas was extremely bright and a very interesting person to know. The more I found out about him the more we interacted the more I grew to respect him and his talent. I was lucky enough to get a chance to work with Andreas. Andreas was a phenomenon. The work that he created was beautiful. His method precise, his solutions well thought out and he was able to create with unmatched dexterity and efficiency. We became good friends. I was also lucky enough to be meet Andreas in person for the first time at his wedding. Andreas was a very happy man. Kathleen was Andreas’ perfect match. <BR>
We will miss Andreas terribly not only for his talent, but for how he touched our lives. We lost a great friend. The world feels like a much smaller place today. Our hearts go out to Kathleen, and to the big group of family and friends that loved him so. <BR>

Dear All<BR>
At lunch today we -- Bert, Aran, Yoshiki and myself -- first got word (via a phone call from Rita to Bert) that Andreas was suddenly in a hospital in serious condition. Then a few minutes later we were told that he had died.<BR>
At this point we have no other information except that he left normally for work this morning.<BR>
Bert will let us know when we have more news.<BR>
We all loved Andreas and nothing can lesson our grief at this sudden tragedy<BR>
Best wishes to all<BR>
Alan<BR>
