I was very surprised when I received the email about Andy's passing. I enjoyed meeting with him at various events and tradeshows. We had worked on several projects in the past. He was a great supporter of the plastics industry and SPE. He will be missed by many of us!
These are very sad and unexpected news. Andy was a great businessman and SME. I will always be thankful for his trust and support. He will be remembered!
I left my former plastics company to start recruiting on my own in 1984. That is when I met Andy Routis who was a tremendous source of help and information that allowed me to succeed. I will never forget him and what he did for me. I send my condolences and respect to all who knew him. Thanks Andy you are so missed. Fondly Bob
I enjoyed working with Andy. He was a great person and he touched many lives. He will be fondly remembered by a great number of people.
I reconnected with Andy when Trade shows were starting up. I was privileged to work with him on the coordination of 2 recent shows. He was anxious to get back on the show floor. His positive outlook always encouraged me to be better and do better. He had a "live life to the fullest" attitude and his zest for life came through in our conversations and emails. We have lost a wonderful man.
Andy was a good man who had a passion for the plastics industry as well as training others to succeed. Have personally had the privilege to work with him for 25 years and am glad to have called him a friend,
Andy and I became friends when I moved to Boston in the late 90s. He had a smile that lit up a room and an eye that captured the perfect moment with his camera. I'm honoured to have been able to share in some of his adventures. He will be missed. Fond memories, Ellie
It is with deepest sadness to hear of Andy's passing. We first came to know Andy in 2012 when we partnered with Routsis Training to run training for Malaysia. We forged a great friendship. Andy is kind, approachable, sincere, always willing to help. Rest in peace, dear friend. Whendi, Malathy & Sujata.
