NABC mourns the loss of Andrew Johnson, an employee and friend.

Over the weekend we learned that Andrew Johnson had died of injuries suffered in a tragic house fire near Murfreesboro, Tennessee. He was a well liked and skilled former NABC kitchen employee who left our staff only a short time ago to move south and further his education at Middle Tennessee State University.

Speaking personally, Andrew was a good kid, a good worker, and his friends at the extended NABC family will miss him. 25? It’s simply too damned young to be taken away.

Note that NABC (pub & pizzeria) will be closed Wednesday until 6:00 p.m. so that Andrew’s friends and co-workers can attend the funeral service. Thanks for understanding.
