Andy Feinman passed away on Thursday, May 11, 2017, after battling cancer for more than four years. He was a passionate supporter of Florida Bay and the back country of America's Everglades.  He cared deeply about the estuarine habitat that makes the Florida Keys so special. Every day we are remind-ed that we inherit the good works and walk in the footsteps of those who came before us. Andy's legacy will live on at the Audubon's Everglades Science Center thanks in part to the more than $30,000 in gifts received in his honor. These gifts will add to Andy’s impact by supporting the ongoing research and science to protect and restore Florida Bay and America's Everglades. His love and elation of the outdoors, silky waters, and fishing will carry on. Andy will be missed by many, and Audubon offers condolences to Mary, Nick and Reuben, and the rest of his family and friends.
