Default Dear Andre

You will be missed. You were an inspiration to many others in the Hobby. Always fair with your prices and trades and the personal efforts that you made to attend numerous OMVA flea markets were greatly appreciated.... God only knows that you travelled great distance to assist other ans socialize...it cwertainly was not a bread winner for you.

We visited his residence or should I say his collection on a few occasion and even had the pleasure of having lunch with Jacqueline or Quiquine as ANdre called her...... their hospitality was overwhelming.

We will miss you dearly.

I'm travelling up there tomorrow for the viewing and the funeral on Wednesday. I will pass on a link to his family so they can read your condolences.

I write this on behalf of my father Dirk Leegwater, he has a lot of good memories on André.
His thoughts are with his family and friends.

Very sorry to hear about his passing. I always enjoyed talking with him at the shows and picked up some nice pieces from him over the years. Please pass on my condolences to his family.
