I had the great pleasure of meeting this fine young man, earlier this month, while attending high school events at Halstead. Although my son had wrestled Nick, who by the way set a wonderful example for his younger brother, I had not had the honor of meeting Andre until the Halstead/Hillsboro/Hesston Double Dual. I visited with Andre on this occassion and at the 2-day Halstead Tournament. I echo all previous posts about what a wonderful young man Andre was.

My heart goes out to the Thibeault family and the entire Halstead Wrestling community.
