He was a dear dear friend. Every time I've left Wild Things we parted with a big hug and a tear in the eye, knowing it would be a whole year until we met again.

I know he knew the Lord as his personal savior. His faith was obvious to all who knew him. I am happy that he is in paradise but sad at the same time. I pray for his loved ones.

...and thank you, Thom, for posting a great photo of Andrew. It is far better than any photo I had taken of him.

Very sorry to hear of the loss of Andrew. I got a chance to talk to him a few times on the phone. Seemed to be one heck of a nice guy. Was really looking forward to getting to hunt pigs with him. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

What a loss. I can honestly say Andrew Harper is the best man i have ever met.. a true southern gentleman only scratches the surface . I'm going to miss all the deep conversations and bouts of uncontrolled laughter on the porch of his property. My thoughts and prayers go out  Stiles and Charlie.. and everyone that  truely had the pleasure of knowing him.

A lot of us that knew Andrew feel exactly the same way. You wanted to be a better person just from knowing him.

Andrew was a man that not only let you into his home but into his heart. A hand shake and look into his eyes you knew he was the true meaning of a friend. The hunting stories over a cold I.P.A. late at night while scratching Harry's head will truly be missed.
 
Andrew was a great man to all and it was an honor to know him. Prayers to all his family.

I was only able to meet Andrew once years ago and he was nothing short of an outstanding gentleman. Although we'd never met prior to my hunting at Hog Heaven he treated me and all others around with great generosity and as though they were old friends. Most, if not all I hunted with returned regularly to hunt with Andrew at Wild Things and formed lasting friendships with Andrew, and it's easy to see why. I'm sorry for the loss of a great person who has left such a positive impact on those he encountered in life.

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

Andrew was one of the finest gentleman I've ever met.  True Southern hospitality, a fantastic chef and definately left a positive impact on me..  I will miss our early morning coffee.

Prayers for family and Charles, RIP Andrew.

What a loss to our community, to those his life has touched and those who never had the pleasure of meeting him.
I, my brother and father fortunately/unfortunately had the chance to share a dinner table for a few wonderful days on his beloved wild things. In that short period of time Andrew became a friend, though I don't feel that word does him justice.
Andrew had a way of making you wanna be a better person in his presence and life in general. He had a warmth and kindness about him that was unmatched by most and rivaled by fewer. He genuinely cared about YOUR Life and YOUR family and would swoon over pictures and storys of your children, would show true interest in your profession and share himself with you in any way he could.
I'm deeply sadden by the loss of his life. I was in hopes to share many more dinner tables with this wonderful man. I hoped he would meet my kids in the future and share himself with them.
I will charish my short time with him as I hope all of you that knew him will.
I hope his family knows just how many lives he
touched over his many years. I/we should thank them for sharing him with US.
Thank you Andrew you will be missed

The world lost a great man and heaven gained a southern gentleman. Rest easy on the mountain Mr Andrew. God bless you.
