A message to all my brother Andrew's #AndyKershaw friends, fans and supporters Hiya, Our Andrew was a force of nature. But, on the evening of Thursday April 16th, a very aggressive cancer finally found his Off Switch. Throughout his illness and the last 9 months of treatment he never complained. He was stoic and positive to the end. His courage shone through. When he announced he was determined to walk again he did. Through his usual bloody mindedness, sheer grit, and hard work. His sense of humour never waned. When he was told he might lose his hair he sent off for a selection of jaunty hats. His consultant says she’s never had a patient who worked so hard to help himself and was so inspiring Even when in discomfort, pain, and fear, he was charming and kind to everyone who cared for him. I know how much his website and his podcast meant to him. Thank you for sticking with him when he was unable to update it any more. His producer Peter and I hope to keep it, and all that is so uniquely Andy within it, alive in his memory. Peter will be posting previously unheard material And I will be sharing news of a memorial event our family is working on with many of the musicians he loved and who wish to honour the support he gave them over his 6 decades in music promotion and media (1978 - 2026) We will do him proud. It is heartbreaking and hard to take in that my blue eyed little brother is gone. But very very comforting that he is certainly not forgotten. Your messages from all over the world really helped to keep him going. And now they are a huge comfort to his family Thank you Our Elizabeth
