 Deborah CRISTINA, Sicily (Italy) My Dear Lifelong Fans of our beloved Andy GIBB, I decided to embark on this adventure because some years ago Andy GIBB touched my heart in a very special way. Since then, I deeply feel the desire that the memory of this young artist, whose smile and talent are indelibly imprinted in the memory of innumerable fans, is honored in the most beautiful way. The things that made Andy unique were out of the simple performance, which always excelled, and came straight to the people's heart because they had to do with the qualities that make a human being really special: I refer to respect, altruism, sincerity, good manners and, special note, the sense of humor. Andy GIBB was all this and anyone who had the privilege of meeting him knows it perfectly. That's why I like to say that, if there was Andy, the world would be a pretty better place! In March 2018 we celebrate 30 years since the premature death of Andy GIBB: as I’ve written, he will be always remembered, not only as a talented and charismatic performer, but as a beloved family member and a special friend who gave so much of himself to others, especially as an honorary member of the Diabetes Research Institute Foundation in Miami.

 Andy, born in England and raised in Australia, loved Miami and the ocean so much and fans of all over the world still miss him, not only for his string of multi-platinum albums, for his two Grammy Award nominations and for his unforgettable Broadway debut, but, as Robin GIBB said, “especially for his capacity to reach the hearts of the people, because it isn’t just about the sound or the song, but the human connection”. Now… HERE IS THE MOMENT THAT ANDY’S MEMORY NEEDS OUR HELP! His virtuous lyrics of Everlasting Love, and Flowing Rivers are ageless. We as the United Fans of Andy Gibb’s memory want to show our “Everlasting Love” for Andy by declaring our desire to see his memory memoralized in his adopted city of Miami Beach, Florida. Andy was always recognized as a Son of Miami, or should we say ‘the Sun of Miami”. His devoted love of the water and his love of yachtsmanship with the MOTOR YACHT MARIE, along with his Family of Brothers and parents and close friends, were his foundation for his creativity and life long dreams. Andy would be at home in Miami today had he not been called heavenly homeward. So we’re going to ask the City of Miami to celebrate Andy GIBBS great talent, generosity, kindness, huge contribution by allowing the naming of a street and the affixing of a monument to be enjoyed by visitors from all over the world. 

 Every year so many people come to Miami to visit the places regularly frequented by Andy GIBB and that's why countless fans want, with all their heart, that Miami, the city that Andy loved so deeply, devotes to him a road or that affords a monument to honor the memory of this extraordinary artist. Let’s remember that, already in March 1989, the Miami mayor unveiled "Andy Gibb Drive”, but, after a very short time, maybe it was dropped due to a rezoning of the property and was never revisited. Thanks from the bottom of my heart for your thoughtful help. Your support can make all the difference in our formal presentation and will be the sign of our Everlasting Love! Deborah Cristina, Sicily (Italy)
