Andy Williams..This is one of those celebrity deaths that cuts to the core... another irreplaceable old-school American entertainment icon in the same vein as Dick Clark, Johnny Carson and Frank Sinatra. Andy Williams reminds me of the best of my parent's generation :...warm memories of sweaters, comfort and Christmas specials.

Andy possessed a casual cool that seemed effortless. To paraphrase the title of one of his hit songs, " Can't get used to losing you"......You will be missed, buddy. : (

The last video below, Try to Remember , always tore me up..It is so freakin melancholy! The tune made me sad as a kid and it still crushes me. ..but sometimes a sad song is what you need...to stop and remember all those who are gone...you loved them and they will always be a part of who you are...
