"Dearest Nowacki Family, I only recently learned of Andy's passing and send my deepest condolences to your family. We graduated from Brush together and I will always remember him as "Wacky Nowacki"...a happy, amiable soul with a smile for everyone. If Andy was in a class with you, you knew it was going to be fun. I am honored to live in a country where brave people like Andy are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for the rest of us. God Bless You and God Bless Andy." ~  Jennifer Rhodes-Snyder, Cincinnati, Ohio

"I had the pleasure of knowing Andy during my 4 years in the Marine Corps. He along with a few others were attached to my unit in March of 2003. Andy and I spent allot of time working side by side, we live in a fighting pit outside of our base in southern Iraq for quite a few weeks. Never have I known someone as upbeat and optimistic as Andy. Whenever times seemed to rough, his jokes and "ill make ya laugh attitude" got me through the day. I lost touch with Andy after his second deployment, but I will always remember him as one of the best! I miss you buddy!!!!!!" ~  Ed McEvoy, Mullica Hill, New Jersey

"My name is Todd Carroscia, Andy and I along with two other friends John Bechtel and Mike Pollack were very close as well as fellow police officers. The 4 of us were like brothers, and the news of Andy "ACE" making the ultimate sacrifice for his country was a crushing blow to us. Andy never thought about what people could do for him, it was what he could do for them. You couldn’t ask for a better friend then he. This was and still is very difficult to deal with for many reasons. To burry a fellow police officer is hard enough, but to have that officer as one of your closest friends brings a man to his knees. We love you Andy and in time we will see each other again, and brothers we will forever be............" ~  Todd Carroscia, Timberlake, Ohio
