Buggying

I have updated the front page of Extreme Kites to reflect the passing of AndyFly, and an article with a bit of his achievements, endorsements and his growth within the community itself to try and convey the type of individual AndyFly was.

Farewell AndyFly: http://www.extremekites.com.au/news/rid ... issed.html

Once I know the funeral arrangements it will be posted and updated here for those wanting to attend. If you wish to share your thoughts on Andy please do so in this topic, as I will put together a small tribute page in due time and will include some of the photos and thoughts from this topic.

Regards,

.Joel

AndyFly,

One full of life character that will never be forgotten, ever. In the short time I knew him, I'll never forget him.

Love to all the Fly family.

Who has the biggest smile ??

I open up Xk I this is what I see first what a shock & with great sadness I read this news.
Meet Anyfly at Stockton all those years ago & his talent as a kiter still leaves vivid memories & with a personality to match.
He was a talented kiter & a gifted tradesman whose work can be found on many of the buggies we take to the various meets around this country.


My condolences to Linda & family R.I.P. Andyfly.

I've just been informed by various channels .... which has left me shell shocked.
My sincerest condolences to Linda and kids.

Andy, you enriched everybodies lives that you came in contact with, you will truly be missed by all
Your enthusiasm, skill, smile and your time for anyone is legendary

I'll miss you 'Pansh Bro' we always saw eye to eye

RIP buddy

Makes you realise how fickle life is. I experienced his generosity when I started buggying and have had the pleasure of his company on 7 mile.

My sincerest condolenced to his family.

A very sad day within the kiting community, my thoughts are with the people who loved him the most...RIP Andy

Take Care Andy and heartfelt wishes to your family at this sad time
Words can't express how sad this is.
I was chuckling only the other day at sitting drinking coffee with u and ur family as the smallest of flys sat in a tree dropping sticks on passers by and Andy trying to tell him off without laughing too hard at the cheeky little fella.
"honest Dad, I was dropping the stcks near them not on them!"
A sad day indeed

I just wanted to say how wonderful it has been reading all these wonderful comments about my brother. He was passionate about this sport and obviously had a lot of very good friends to enjoy it with. Its very sad for our family that he has died so young with so much potential for a happy life ahead of him. Thank you all for being his friends. Jo Male

Such terrible news only made sadder by these short notes of love. My heart goes out to all of you who have had your lives touched by Andy.

Well what is there to say.......

The kiting community has suffered a huge loss.. But none so near to the Fly clan.. my condolences go out to Linda and the kids.

Always reminds me of one late afternoon... no wind all afternoon... everyone has packed up and the winds decide to change... no chance Andy was missing this one... strong wind 12m kite... what could be better...

well only the smile on Andy's face after landing the kite...
Fly high and have fun.

We'll miss you AndyFly - there so many of us who've been inspired by our time with you.
I'll continue wearing the name AndyFly on my buggy with pride for years to come.
