Andy 'Skinny' Day

Skinny-dad, annn'day
THE MAN WHO CAN

It's been over 6 weeks since we last spoke now and it still doesn't seem real!
We shared so much together and that will never be forgotten.

No more random meet ups in the woods to purposely get lost for a couple of hours for the shits and giggles, no more half hour drunk phone calls chatting absolute nonsense, no more listening to you trying to get a story out but can't through laughter making me laugh and then laughing even harder (best story teller), no more phone calls for advice from both parties, no more meeting up for a quick pint or 3 on a lazy Wednesday, no more chilling at mine with skyla stealing your lap for an hour, no more raving and seeing that big smile of yours coming in for a hug but one things for sure champeano I'll hold all of this in my heart as lovely memories forever.

I'm blessed to have had such a kind hearted buddy in my life who would go above and beyond to help and if you couldn't you'd go out your way to find someone that can.

Today we celebrate your life big man and I know you'll be there partying with us!

Till we meet again big dog x

Skinny, you meant the world to my boys Brandon and Charlie. You will always be a part of them.

I only knew you as Skinny ! Anyway I think you knew how much I loved you and that I was always ready for one of your big bear hugs :) I loved seeing the easy and comfortable friendship you and Brandon had, and I am so sad this has been cut too short, but you have left a huge impression and mark on me as a beautiful, kind and loving soul who had endless love to offer to everyone, with an aura that glowed. By the way I have fallen in love with your gorgeous mum and dad - this would make you smile ... chatting to your mum about knitting ! Oh... and you were my cucumber salad number 1 fan !!! God Bless you Skinny aka Andy... your high-spirited and enthusiastic essence will remain with us always xx

I have memories spanning back to childhood, roaming the streets of Cheddington, having as much fun as could be had in the village #cheddomassive! Then as teenagers getting up to all sorts and smoking my first ever cigarette with you at 14 (have never looked back since ;)), to then becoming adults and always having your great big smile, teddy bear hug, epic energy, ferocious two-step, and community tent policy as a warm welcome and home away from home at every rave & festival.
You’ll be missed by so many.
It too often feels like the people that have the largest impact and most beautiful energies are taken from us too soon. I believe these souls are the ones called back by the angels to fly high and continue shining upon us from the highest place.
Fly high skinny x

All my thoughts, love and healing energy are with Sue, Graham, Chris, Matthew & close family and friends x

A huge loss and gone way too early. Enjoyed our time playing rugby together at Aylesbury. Andy was a great player and an even better person. Rest in peace mate x

Our Andy,
How many times have we tried to put into words how much you mean to us?
You were always a confident, fearless young man, larger than life, a force of nature.
You were the one to make the house shake when slamming the front door, and our sides ache with laughter at your antics. Arla will be issuing a profit warning now you aren't drinking the fridge dry of milk!
We had no idea (and we don't think you did) of how widely loved you are. It's been a huge comfort to us.
Until we meet again,
Love Mum, Dad & Matt xxx

Rest in peace mate. Such a genuinely kind & lovely bloke, not a bad bone in your body- You'll be truly missed by so many, thoughts to all your family and close friends.

I found out the tragic news during the England France rugby game at the weekend, which in someway seemed kind of fitting if it at all could in any way, took me back to you playing up an agegroup for school running through boys. Gone too soon, I guess the good do die young. RIP Skindawg x

Hi . anote I wrote and put on sympathy cards maybe help full for his family members.people have told me it's helped them.use it in funeral services? " There is a time to weep as well laugh.god knows how you feel.as he had watched his son suffer a cruel death on the cross.he wants you to tell him how you feel.so he can comfort you.also to tell others.so they can comfort you.as they had been comforted.ecclesiastes3v4. 2cors1v3-4." I will continue to pray for you all.gbless.alan

We knew Andy best as Matt's big Brother. He would meet Matt from school occasionally and was so friendly.and easy to be around. Losing him has left a big hole for Sue, Graham and the family, but with the love so many have shown, and the memories they have shared, Andy will live on in all our hearts always. X

Skinny, from your warm hugs, your contagious laugh, and cheekiness. Will always be missed. There was never a dull moment when you were by our side. Always putting a smile on people’s faces and always putting everyone before yourself. Love you big man. Forever and always.

Skinny. I got to know you properly in Australia in 2018. You were so kind, caring and warm hearted. One of the most genuine people I’ve ever met.
The world will not be the same without you in it. You have positively impacted so many peoples lives. You will be truly missed x

Skinny, how I will miss our biweekly hugs and 2 minute catch ups when we’d bump into eachother at work. I’d have squeezed you for longer last time had I known what was to come. One of the kindest, selfless people I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. From wholesome Sunday dog walks, followed by roast dinners to boozy late nights, I will cherish those memories forever. Love you and miss you my friend, my birthday twinny💕

It’s just heartbreaking to hear of Andy’s passing, he was always such a kind person and when ever we would walk home from school with Chris and sometimes Andy he would always be saying hello or having conversations with people in the village, it was clear he was loved by so many, sending my love to Sue,Graham,Chris, Matthew xxx

Love you Skinny. Thank you for being a gorgeous friend to me and Will. Always kind, fun, silly, gorgeous and everything I would want out of a pal. Always going above and beyond, why you helped us move from south to north London I will never know, pure good genes. Can’t believe I’m not going to pure you a pint again. My gorgeous friend. Will miss you always xxx

Spent many years playing rugby with you under your captaincy. Some great memories over our formative years, I’m so sorry to hear you’ve left us so early, rest in peace x

Skinny… one of the most lovable, huggable, genuinely kind, caring guys I’ve ever met. I am so lucky to have got to spend so many fun memories with you over the years. You really did make every one better☀️ you were always checking in and asking how the kids were, a beautiful soul who will be missed by so many. Love always xxx

So glad I had the pleasure of meeting you skinny ❤️ One of the nicest funniest people ive ever met! Your going to be so missed by so many people 💔
Much love, Bruce 😉😂🥺😢

So saddened to hear of Skinny passing. Fond memories of him only. A friend to all he met, just a deep down lovely guy, the world has lost a gooden. Rest easy mate x

Skinny, you will be deeply missed my brother. you lit up every room you walked in to. You were the life and soul of every dance floor. You did not have a bad bone in you, one of the most caring and nicest blokes I’ve had the pleasure of crossing paths with. You rest easy up there brother, untill we meet again (hopefully next to a big old rig up in the sky, bass face booming just like at boomtown). God bless you skinny, loved by all.

Reading all the messages and tributes on here and on Facebook it is easy to see what a special man Andy was. He touched so many people's hearts and he will forever stay in them. RIP Andy.

Andy day skinny skindawg the most kind hearted bloke who touched absolutely everyone you came into contact with so many memories so many laughs with you growing up your red metro brought so many jokes to all our teenage years to days up the beacon on our bikes always a smile on your face you was one of a kind skinny fly high brother rip
My thoughts are with sue graham Chris and Matthew

The last week has been so difficult for all of us, but hearing these memories have been incredibly comforting. It’s clear that Andy has not just been a brilliant brother, but a brilliant friend to many.

I’ve spent many hours looking back on fond memories of Andy. From childhood holidays, to playing at home and in the streets of Cheddington. I recall sharing a bedroom, playing classic PlayStation games and talking rubbish until way past bedtime.

Recent memories of Andy include being an amazing uncle to our young children - winding them up at bedtime, reading with them and cuddles on the sofa. I’m devastated that they will miss out on this in the future but comforted he had a big part in their lives.

I would like to thank Brandon and Andy’s close friends for setting up this page all of the support.

Rest in peace brother.

Chris X

Awww Skinny. Can’t believe I won’t see you again in this life, or have another chat with you, or get swung around at the front of the rave by you 💔
You were instantly a friend the moment I met you, and always went out your way to be a friend , and many others friend. We all love you so much. None of this feels real. I bet you’re all looking down at us, thinking soppy shits. I say this word often, but you truly live up to it. A legend, you truly were. I will never ever forget your love, your kindness, your warmth and your friendship. RIP Skin, Andy. My friend 💔💔

Skinny D !

To' the man who's laugh would silence the room.
To' the man who's cuddles would warm up your room.
To' the man who's cheekyness would humble the room.
To' the man i am grateful to call my mate skin.
Thank you for the best times and best memories brother.
Love you mate , see you on the other side x

Andy,

I’ll always remember what a funny, silly, kind hearted guy you were. I’ll always cherish our evenings getting up to no good as teenagers growing up in Ched. It has been a while since I last saw you, but I can still picture your friendly smile like it was yesterday.

Sending love to your family and friends at this difficult time. Brandon and team, what a lovely idea for setting this site up xx

A true gentleman who I know will be missed by so many family and friends! I only knew you for a short time when living in Cheddington but in that time I know how much you were loved. Such great company and a pleasure to have known you

I am so saddened to hear the heartbreaking news, I met you by chance working with you in Pitstone and was quickly drawn in by your fantastic sense of humour! Laughter and fun was always there when you were around, when you left the job me and Matt still saw you when we were out and about and you’d always make time to have a hello hug and a catch up chat, we’d all be laughing within seconds of seeing you. Just can’t imagine how hard this must be for your family, you are a credit to them, l loved your energy and endless jokes and laughter. Much love from me and Matt xx

Skinny, a true gem with a heart of gold. The funniest man I know. Thank you for being such an incredible friend. The memories we’ve shared will be treasured forever. Forever our Groomsman 🤍

I feel truly blessed that you entered my life, I never felt lonely with you by my side. You really helped me navigate some tough times and brought out the silliness in me.
To the countless laughs we had driving around in the shagger where you earned top rated passenger princess status. To our night time dog walks which would always end with mud somewhere it shouldn’t be. You really brought the fun out of every situation. The world is more daunting without you holding my hand. Forever and always in my heart Andy xxx

Dear Sue, Graham, Chris & Matthew.
Words cannot express the shock of hearing about the passing of Andy. Such a lovely lad. Fond memories of him as a young child when I used to pop over and visit you in Tring.
Sending sincere condolences to you all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad and difficult time.
Tracey, Jack & Ayse

Skinny, Skin dog, my brother, one of my closest mates, you have been one of the most important people in my life for over half of it. We all have so many amazing memories of you, which we'll be talking about forever more. Sleep easy geez, we love you eternally xx

This won't be my last message to you, but this is a start. I love you big man
