I just heard the sad news... I Can't remember the last time I posted on K zone, But I wanted to send my deepest heartfelt sympathy to Andy Z's wife and his family and friends... I have a picture in my mind of him that he was always smiling... Rest in peace Andy, Ski with the Angels.....

This made me remember the classic video AndyZee filmed of RustyK grass skiing on Skyehawk, this is a still I had grabbed from it:

The YouTube link no longer works. Does anyone have a copy of it? Andy's commentary was as good as the video.

That was a great video by Andy. He had named it "What's in your wallet."

I searched UTube but could not find it.

Thanks AZ

Jodi and I will be at the viewing/wake tonight around 6-6:30. If anyone else will be there and wants to go have a drink and toast to Andy after the viewing and maybe share some Zee stories, we'd be up for that.

Hopefully see a few of you folks there tonight.

Attended the viewing tonight. Nice turnout of family and friends. Kzone was represented by Dork, myself, G-smashed and D, Junior and J, SheCanSki and FirstScrape. Saw their friend Milagros there too. I made a book made up of a printout of this thread and the tribute thread on AlpineZone and gave it to Violetta. AlpineZone sent a nice flower arrangement.

Violetta told us that he started feeling sick 2 months ago but it was not until 3 weeks ago that they found out that it was cancer of the pancreas and that it was stage 4. That's how quickly this happened. Take care everyone and try to enjoy each day as you never know what will happen in the future.
