Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem.

A fellow in arms.

Ihsahn, Andrew, was an amazing man. He served in the United States Marines, and despite his mishaps, he did what he thought was right, and tried to support his friends and be there for them. - [Stephen]

I haven't known him for very long...but we got along quite well, he was a cool dude...shouldn't of gone out this soon. - [HeAVenShallBuRN]

Andrew, I wish you had come to me more in the last couple of months, you not only knew me here, but on other places I visited more often during my down time. I can't help but feel that if I had been there for you more...Miss you hon. Please rest in peace, God knows you deserve it. <3 - [Bookwyrm]

It was a shame to have found you the way I did. Though you wished it. I didn't find it in myself to allow you to die in your apartment. I do not want people to think of you in the past tense. Because you aren't truly dead as long as the memory of you exists within others. - [Ultiem]

It completely broke my heart when I found out he had passed. Not only was he a big help to me here on ElfPack, but he had always been there for me when I had real life problems as well. He was always so sweet to me... And I wish he would have reached out to me as well. He was yet another friend I had a chance to see in person, but never did. Rest in Peace, sugar. Tell Jess hi for me. :) - [My Sky's The Limit]

Andrew, I've been sitting here trying to think of something I could say that could do you justice, but I can't. I honestly feel speechless and heartbroken. Not only have you been a close friend to me since I first joined Elftown all these years ago, but you've also been there for me through thick and thin. I loved our long phone conversations about nothing and everything, our IM conversations that lasted days about life.I loved our Facebook conversations, and how completely random they were. I loved how auto-correct always got the best of you when we were texting. I loved that you always knew when I was having a bad day, and knew how to cheer me up. I loved planning your visit here, and I promised you we would do the coolest things in the universe. I loved our debates over the few things we disagreed upon, and I loved our respect for our differences. I loved how you'd randomly message me to remind me that you love me, and I loved that you had respect for people you didn't really like. I loved how you were always working harder to better yourself, and I loved your ambition. I loved how completely amazing you were as a person and I loved just everything about you. You are one of the few people I look up to and I still can't believe you're gone. I look forward to meeting you again in the afterlife and giving you that hug I've always promised I'd give you. - [WonderTweek]

Although we had our differences, I still respect you, you're a protector, a fighter for good will, you fight for what you love, and you fight for the worlds Country's, that is a true good man, thanks - [sammie h!]
