In reply to Yuri Ivanovich (msg # 995):
I appreciate that, thanks. Like myself, Andy was raised Catholic but drifted away. He ended up going to church with his wife, who is Anglican. Reverend Patrick gave the eulogy, and I laughed out loud when he said when Andy was in hospital and wanted to discuss life and death, he had no idea what he was getting into. He said he'd never had such intense discussions about mortality in his life and I was not surprised. One example of Andy's thoughts was the following: we are made of matter, which is made of energy (E=MC2). The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore the energy that comprises us will continue after our death into infinity as long as the universe exists. Very rational guy!
