Andrew Hugh Green died March 23rd, 2026 surrounded by his family after a long illness.
Originally from Philadelphia, PA, Andy was born on December 10th, 1942 to Hugh and Alma (Geiger) Green and had one brother Thomas Green. As a child he enjoyed his train sets and fishing with his dad in Atlantic City. In his teen years he worked at this parent’s corner candy and ice cream shop along with playing tennis and lacrosse. He graduated from Drexel University with a Chemical engineering degree, Class of 1965.
His first engineering job was in Norristown, PA where he met Frances. His career took him from New Jersey to New York working for Owings Corning Fiberglass. From there they moved to Mechanicsburg where he became the plant manager for Atlas Roofing until 1999. His motto was “There is no such thing as an accident”. In 2000 he began his career as a real estate agent, helping people to find their ideal house. Once retired he moved on to volunteer for organizations like Hospice and Score where he truly made a difference in so many people’s lives. He spent his free time painting beautiful landscapes, animals, portraits and flowers that are displayed at home or given as treasured gifts. He loved gadgets, technology and a good spread sheet.
He is survived by his devoted wife Frances (Sandy) Green of 56 years. After many lessons, together they danced ballroom but found their place in Polka where they spent monthly Saturday nights with their great friends in the Polka Club. They enjoyed dinners with friends, movies, competitive bocce or home watching singing or dance competitions. As parents and grandparents, they were always present. Every holiday, birthday, game, graduation, play, musical, surgery or rainy day they were there and found a way to make it memorable.
His endless patience, need for engineering drawings for any minor household project, dollhouse making, hockey traveling, guidance and sense of humor will be missed by his son Andrew Jr (wife Kristine) and daughter Karen Gummo (husband Gregg).
Pop was adored by his grandchildren Emily, Sarah, Nick, Ryen and Logan. In their words he was captivating, treasured, one stop shop for sound advice, boundless knowledge, patience, analytics and above all kind. He impressed them all with his color theory, Tik Tok navigation, business strategy, groundbreaking surgical techniques, statistics, recounting history and singing the 12 days of Christmas. He could create elaborate Easter egg hunts or pretend to nap to drive them crazy. They loved that he had quiet gentle strength and was content to always truly listen.
Services will be held at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church at 225 Salt Road, Enola PA 17025 on Saturday, March 28, 2026 with visitation from 12:30PM-1:30PM.
Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Saturday, March 28, 2026 at 1:30PM.

Andy changed my life.
We met in 2016 through SCORE, at a time when I was rebuilding after a traumatic brain injury. I was learning to read and write again, unable to work full-time, and trying to imagine a future that looked nothing like the one I had planned. I had a small idea to start a business, but I was uncertain, overwhelmed, and far from confident.
Andy listened.
He saw something in me that I could not yet see in myself. While I brought dreams, half-formed ideas, and emotion, Andy brought structure, wisdom, strategy, and steady belief. We spent countless hours together at Wegmans, talking through life, business, and possibility. I would bring the vision, and he would turn it into shapes, plans, and practical next steps. He helped me make sense of what felt impossible.
Because of his encouragement and guidance, I kept going. I went back to school, earned my master’s degree, built a business, found my way back to the stage, and began creating the life I once feared I had lost forever. Andy cheered me on every step of the way, and he was never afraid to tell me the truth when I needed it. That honesty was one of the greatest gifts he gave me.
He was thoughtful, wise, curious, and deeply kind. He loved his wife Sandy and spoke of his family with such pride and tenderness. He had a brilliant mind, a steady presence, and a way of bringing calm, clarity, and order to the people around him. He made an extraordinary difference in my life, and I know I am not the only one who was changed by his generosity and belief.
There are no words to fully express my gratitude for the role Andy played in helping me find my way back to myself. I will carry his influence, his lessons, and his belief in me for the rest of my life.
I am so deeply sorry for this loss, and so deeply grateful that I had the privilege of knowing him
Love,

I was so saddened and heartbroken when I received the message from Andy’s wife, Sandy, sharing that he had passed. I knew he was undergoing medical treatments, but he always appeared strong, focused, and mentally sharp during our coaching sessions. His strength made the news even harder to process.
I connected with Andy in November of 2025 through the SCORE mentoring program. It wasn’t that long ago, yet after our conversations, it feels as though I had known him much longer. I originally sought out a mentor and accountability partner as a realtor, but what I gained was far more meaningful. It is hard to put into words the impact he made on my life and the role he played in helping me move my business forward.
I was truly looking forward to our next session in April, when I planned to share the success of my first downsizing seminar for seniors — something he helped me prepare for and encouraged me to pursue. I know he would have been proud.
If he made this kind of impact on me in such a short time, I can only imagine the depth of influence he had on his family, friends, and the many mentees he guided over the years. My prayers are with his dear wife, his children, and his grandchildren as they navigate this tremendous void.
My condolences and sympathies to the family…. Andy was such a professional during my time representing Cumberland County during Tom Corbett’s tenure as our Governor of Pa…. working with Andy was a pleasure and privilege because of what he brought to the table with his insight and leadership.. I will miss him…greatly. RIP friend.. God Bless

Andy was a good friend. We were volunteers at SCORE where he spent much of his last 16 or 17 years helping ANYONE would wanted to start or grow a business of their own. It was largely because of him that I joined SCORE to join in his efforts to help others follow in his footsteps and pass along vital information to others to help them potentially save thousands of dollars by not making mistakes in their business journey. Even through his major health issues over the past couple of years, he still kept up with his clients at SCORE and continued to meet with many of them weekly or monthly via zoom. He was a great mentor to me and his SCORE clients an we will all miss his humor and smile! God bless him, his wife, children and grandchildren! Please God he is in your hands now and find a special place for him in Heaven. He was a special guy!
To say I’m in shock is an understatement. I knew Andy had been sick for quite some time, but he never slowed down or let it show—he maintained that same high level of energy and output to the very end.
I first met Andy in 2014 as one of his SCORE clients when we were looking to expand our Civil War business. From the start, he brought not only ideas, but clarity and direction. As the business evolved and took some unexpected turns, Andy was there to help us navigate the realities and challenges of such a niche market, especially from 2019 through just two weeks ago.
We met twice a month over Zoom, and during COVID, every week. In fact, I was expecting to meet with him this Tuesday, only to receive the heartbreaking news from his wife that he had passed. It’s still hard to process.
Andy had a way of sharing insights from other clients and experiences—always teaching, always connecting the dots, always helping you see the bigger picture. He took real pride in the successes of those he worked with, yet was never above rolling up his sleeves and doing the work alongside you, right up to the very end.
To say he will be missed feels wholly inadequate. His impact was profound, and I’m deeply grateful to have known and worked with him.
