I consider Jerry Andrus as my mentor. Mentor is a label given ONLY to the WELL DESERVED. I consider myself to be BLESSED that I was able to spend as much time with Jerry as I did.
@bRadicalmagic1 I agree.. Jerry was a good friend and a wonderful person. I met him when I first became serious about magic (1974). I attended countless IBM meetings and even a private trip to PDX to look at a Psychic Fair along with Ray Hyman ) I miss his Castle of Chaos visits (and Halloween Illusions) and I value every moment i spent in his company. I was young but he never made me feel that was something to be looked down upon. Truly Andrus was a great man! ~jk~
To anyone who reads these messeges, could you please tell mr. randi that I've been waiting for a response. it's time for me to put a stop in all this nonsense about fake psychics. I'm real and I know of and elder who came before me and he is real too. I am impervious to illness and I say that If You want the proof, it's right here trying to slap you in the face for ignoring it. I'm willing to bet my life against his Million, in my opinion the stakes couldn't be higher.
I, too am from Albany, Oregon (same as Jerry Andrus). Last October, I e-mailed him and he invited myself and a friend to his house for an afternoon. Wow! He was a genius and a gentlemen. I even got an autograph! I really feel blessed to have met him and I mourne his loss.
I met Andrus briefly at the first Amazing Meeting. A wonderful person, and his illusions were truly mind-bending! The world is a poorer place without him.
Jerry was a great man who helped me in so many ways. I mourn his loss deeply but I am thankful for all he did for me and for every moment I spent with him at magic meetings, alone (eating a "short stack..no eggs.. cuz they are icky") or visiting Albany's "Castle of Chaos". Jerry my friend I LOVE YA BRO!

Randi,
Thank you for your great thoughts about this phenomenal man.
Nate Leipzig, once said, "The audience wants to know that they have been fooled by a gentleman."
It seems Jerry was a great example of a great, magical gentleman.
So are you, even though you'd probably jokingly deny it.
You are both great inspirations.
Thanks again!
