Only met Andy a couple of times. The guy was a legend. Andy and his girlfriend came out for dinner with us last year, when we went out to celebrate my 40th. It's my 41st next week and I feel so sad at the loss.
My thoughts go out to his girl friend, family and all that knew him.
Such a shame.

Nothing I can add here that would do Andy's Access work and paddling achievements justice.
My only knowledge is that Andy's death is apparently due to some longterm illness originally contracted in Nepal.

Andy Jackson - SCA Access Officer
It is with the deepest regret and sadness that the SCA announces that Andy Jackson has died suddenly.
Everyone at the SCA is deeply shocked and saddened at the sudden death of Andy Jackson on Saturday 4 December 2004. Our deepest sympathies go to Bridget and all of Andy's family.
Not only has the SCA lost a most highly valued colleague but the whole paddle sport community in Scotland has lost a man whose enthusiasm and commitment to everything he did shone out as an example to us all. He did so much good work for us all and brought so much pleasure to everyone who knew him.
Above all we have lost a friend who will be deeply missed.
A fuller tribute to Andy will appear in Scottish Paddler in due course.
This is a great shock to all who knew Andy, whether they paddled with him, knew him through his access work or just as a friend.
