How ironic! On this day, remembering Andy, I found this
little gem.

Cancerous Campaign
Seattle Weekly, Seattle, Washington
Voter activist Andy Stephenson fights charges he faked his illness—from his hospital bed. This spring, the voting-rights advocate's online community came together and raised $50,000 in 11 days to pay for surgery to treat Stephenson's pancreatic cancer. A bizarre campaign followed on the web that accused the nationally renowned activist of faking his illness.

Andy--:toast:
I know you have no more pain, and I have to think that this good news we are seeing lately is attributed to you and the work you are doing on the other side. Godspeed.

1. Nationally renowned activist.
Now, that is an honorable title. Very honorable indeed.

Hey, Andy, are you smiling up there? We miss you. :hi:

4. *INTERnationally renowned activist*
sfexpat2000 noted in an interview that Andy had received donations from all 7 continents. A first-class, world hero.
