A great Loss

Around 9:30 pm (CST) Sunday April 9th, Team 1028's Andy Underwood, was killed in a car accident after losing control of his car and crashing into a ditch.
He was a friend to many, a member of our robotics team and a student at Sparkman High. Andy was easy to get along with and nice to pretty much everybody, he will be missed. Below is a pic of Andy during the lunch break saturday at Palmetto.

Re: A great Loss

Wow...definitely didn't expect this. I wasn't sure what to expect when I first clicked the link -- I didn't assume it was going to be anything serious...this definitely caught me off guard. I definitely send the school, family and especially the team my condolences.

It's weird though...when I hear or read of people being killed in the news and what not -- it doesn't phase me much; however, this was different -- this definitely hit me -- just wow.

Again...I offer my condolences.

Re: A great Loss

This is very heartbreaking news, and I offer my condolences to Andy's family and friends. We talk about obstacles involved in the robotics games, but this is truly the cruelest obstacle to deal with and I wish your team strength in doing so.

Re: A great Loss

Team 237 and I personally send my/our condolences. The Watertown area has experienced a way too large amount of premature deaths in the past year and a half or so... that kind of pain is horrible.

Again, our condolences.
