Pikes 2019: Andrew,Sammy,Tamara & Alexandra. We bonded over fancy dress, music & large G&Ts in 2013 . A beautiful soul- Andrew enriched my life with his art, his stories and his company. Looking forward to celebrating his life with those who loved him x

What a sad loss for Andy’s family and friends. He was my friend for 54 years. We ‘grew up together as teenagers. He was my first real friend. I could share so many memories…. We would meet every day when I was home from boarding school and start with, “Let’s do something daring today…”. …and throughout our lives we would often say “Do you think we’re grown up yet?” To which we’d both say….”Nah, don’t think so… maybe next year.” I shall miss him dearly. …and continue to go out and do something daring, whilst utterly refusing to ever grow up! With love. Geoff

Andy loved music and dancing!! The first thing he always did was put on a CD when he got home.

The light unexpectedly went out and we thought it had so much longer to burn, leaving us behind without Pandrew and our “Uncle” Andrew - difficult to understand this is the end. This photo was taken at his 65th birthday. He had a great night!

I had the pleasure of meeting Andrew and the rest of the Protheroe family on my first trip to the UK in 93 to visit Anna. He welcomed me with open arms to his newly remodeled flat in London and introduced me to the world of design. I'm not even sure he knew he was my mentor...Trevor, Anna, Lee, Jacob and Finn many blessings to you.
