NEW YORK — Andy Rooney so dreaded the day he had to end his signature "60 Minutes" commentaries about life's large and small absurdities that he kept going until he was 92 years old.

Even then, he said he wasn't retiring. Writers never retire. But his life after the end of "A Few Minutes With Andy Rooney" was short: He died Friday night, according to CBS, only a month after delivering his 1,097th and final televised commentary.

Rooney had gone to the hospital for an undisclosed surgery, but major complications developed and he never recovered.................>>>>..................>>>>...............http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/05/andy-rooney-dead-_n_1077574.html

R.I.P.  Andy -- your sense of humor and wisdom will be greatly missed.

This gentle man was the most honest man in his comments.

Looked forward every week for his common sense approach to the subjects he discussed.

There was no other like Andy.....personal and private person...

Model for all commentators and news media reporting...

God Bless.
