…

In loving memory of Andrew Mazzone. His greatness touched many, his legacy of kindness will not be forgotten.
He was a good guy to have in your corner. His legion of friends is proof. Andrew was the driving force behind Hi -N-Dry and the Mark Sandman Music Project. Many nights you’d see him slinging bass around town with friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in Andrew’s memory to Our Space, a nonprofit organization serving children and teens facing cancer. Donations can be made at www.ourspacerocks.org or mail donations to Our Space, Inc., 464 Common Street Box 306, Belmont, MA 02478. A memorial celebration will be held at The Center for Arts at The Armory, 191 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA, on Monday, January 21, from 4-6pm.
