Today I heard that Andrew Cross died early this morning. Andrew has been my right hand man, helping me reccie rambles and being the Disabled Ramblers contact when I was not available. It has been quite a shock as I spoke to him yesterday and expected to see him on today’s ramble. Andrew was from Preston and had embraced the Disabled Ramblers with his heart and soul helping other members to get to rambles and with loading and unloading in spite of his own limitations.

Such sad news, we had met Andrew a couple of times last year on the North Wales rambling week, and saw him last at Terry’s local walk, what a lovely man, our thoughts are with his family at this sad time. Lynda & Ron Cridge
So sorry to hear this sad news about Andrew. We first met him last year on our first disabled ramble on Heughscar hill and were amazed that he had come up to Cumbria from Preston. We did not realise how far disabled ramblers will travel. Andrew was forever moving around everyone, taking photographs at every opportunity. He quietly gave us a few ideas and pointed us in the right direction. We are sure he will be very much missed. Chris & Doreen Greening
Although I only recently got to know him I will miss Andrew and I’m sure Eileen will too. Condolences to his family and all who knew him. Sue Hunt
I am in Spain. I send my condolences to all. D R ramblers. Kind regards, Lynda Mitchell
