It is with great sadness that Martin Audio announced the passing of their European
account manager, Andy Weingartner, who died of a heart attack over Easter.
Luke Ireland, managing director of Martin Audio, said: “It was a huge shock to all of
us. Andy was always an exuberant member of the team, and even before he joined
Martin Audio he was a long term supporter. He will be greatly missed.’
With more than 28 years’ experience in sales and marketing, covering all aspects of
pro audio, Weingartner was well known to the industry, especially in his native
Germany. He is survived by his wife Sandra and their four sons.
A private memorial service will take place on Saturday 11 April in his hometown of
Worpswede, and long term friend and colleague Andrew Davies will represent
Martin Audio.
Paying tribute, Davies said: “Andy was one of the audio industry’s good guys,
anyone who was fortunate enough to know him will miss him and his loss leaves a
unique hole in the industry for many of us.’
Ireland added: “We hope the whole industry will join us in extending thoughts and
prayers to the Weingartner family, and our special thanks to them for letting Andy
be a part of our lives too.’
