The Stuller Family is deeply saddened to inform you of the passing of Andrew “Andy” Kroungold, he was 66-years-old.
Andy’s infectious personality and joyous outlook on life put a smile on everyone’s face that he encountered. He was beloved by our Stuller family and equally beloved by our customers, many of whom knew him as “Andy the Tool Guy”.
Andy began his career in the jewelry industry as a member of the Swest team in the 1980s and joined the Stuller family in 1999. As a twenty-year veteran of Stuller, Andy served the company in a variety of roles, most recently as Tools Business Director.
“There is no other Andy; no one else in the industry like him,” says Tammy Lail, Vice President of Merchandising. “I was fortunate to not only work with him, but to love him as family. He will be deeply missed by so many.”
Andy is survived by his son Robert and his daughter-in-law Hannah.
