Wow I’m so sad to hear that Andy has passed. I will always remember him with great fondness. I’ve known the Porowski family since I was a tween when I sang in the Ottawa Central
children’s choir with Tasha and then again went to high school with Tasha. I’ve spent many nights at their hunt club area home, always with a ton of laughter since Andy was always cracking jokes. He took such great care of his family and their friends. I always felt welcome with them. After moving to Vancouver I naturally saw them less but it always felt great to reconnect. I will miss Andy and I am sending a lot of love to Mitch, Leslie, Tasha and their extended family during this difficult time.
Dear Tony and Family.
Please accept our sincere condolences. We remember Wojtek very well, his personality , his humor.
We are very sorry for your loss.

szczere kondolencje dla Rodziny.
Sadly you will be missed. Will always remember the fun times we had together.
On behalf of Nadine and me, I would like to express our deepest condolences to Leslie, Tasha, and Mitchell, and all of Andy’s family. I grew up with the Porowski boys, as much a constant throughout my childhood as anyone, and have many many memories of visiting the Porowski home in Préville, summers in Lac Marois, always treated as one of their family. Andy always seemed to have the wonderful disposition inherited from his dad. We are so very sorry for your loss.
