Andy Gabrielson Tribute
Submitted by ChaserCon on Tue, 02/14/2012 - 19:14
Andy Gabrielson was to speak at our convention this weekend. He was pretty nervous about it, and Kory Hartman and his wife Jamie were going to help him put his talk together this week.
Alas, a week ago Saturday changed all that. Kory will now be providing a tribute to Andy during his proposed time to speak.
Also, ChaserCon will be bringing Andy's Parents, Greg and Jo Gabrielson to our convention this weekend. They wish to come and visit with attendees that knew Andy.
Finally, SevereStudios has announced that they wish to live stream the convention online for FREE, this year only, in tribute to Andy. This will allow anyone who wants to remember Andy on Saturday morning to be able to watch.
The stream will be shown on the www.chasercon.com home page.
Regards,
Tim Samaras

I hope that Andy's family found some comfort in knowing the high esteem in which this young man was held by his friends and fellows in the storm chaser community.

Submitted by Guest on Wed, 02/15/2012 - 21:42.This really made good news for me since I have had a small string of bad luck with funerals since the beginning of this year. it has near broke me. Kory the tribute you put together was fantastic. I hope that this is included on a DVD with Andy's work. I look forward to watching the stream since I wont be in attendance this year at the Red lion.
