    What a depressing way to end the day. Really hoped this one would have a happy ending....
    Rest in peace with all the other rodders lost this year.
     
  2. I am writing this with tears and I didnt even know Hambandy but read about him and his fighting spirit. One thing that keeps coming to my mind is that hope and prayer doesnt always work but with modern science, we may be able to come up with cures for diseases that affect so many. It is a tragic loss whenever we lose someone young and positive when they were delt a shitty hand in life. I read the post above and am very glad that science can forge ahead again instead of just relying on prayers. If theres a place up there, Andy will surely be there. I am also glad that there are so many on this board sympathetic to those that are not given a fair shake. Its not just about Hamb Andy but all those that are going through troubles and having incurable diseases etc etc. Just remember, it could be you or your best friend or your kid. There have been many before Hambandy and will be more after him given an unfair shake. But Hambandy has brought the best out of all of you!!!
    My families deepest sympathy to the Dunn family. Hambandy will be in my thoughts .

    As a parent who has lost a young child, I cannot begin to express my sadness and grief for Andys parents. Kinda cliche, but he is in a much better place now.

    RIP young Man.

I never knew him but was proud of his fight . He truly touched alot of people and changed alot of peoples lives here . I know you were proud of him too. We all knew what a special guy he was . You were so lucky to have had him in your lives .To have been his parents must have been such a blessing .My heart goes out to you all. God Speed Andy , God Speed ............swaZZie

    wow,
    The world just lost a real deal hotrodder. I have always thought he would beat the rap and i would get to meet Andy some day. The HAMB made his life a little better for a time , but Andy touched all of us in a way most people never get to. Rest in peace Andy, we will all miss you. maybe someday we will cruise the streets of gold, where gas is free and we all can own our dream cars.
