The theme for my senior prom was Moon River and the lead out song was Andy singing the song. Sigh... one of the great nights of my life, I will always rember him fondly.

I remember Penny Gilley interviewed him a couple of years ago at Branson, and I remembered how good he looked during the interview. He was really happy being able to perform still and he just loved living and performing in Branson so at least he was doing what he loved close to the end...........

and so with no further ado:

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me

Thank You Andy.................

I loved his Christmas specials. And what a decent and handsome guy too. They don't make them like that any more. .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.
