Although many people in Ballard didn’t know Andy Kotowicz, many are asking how they can help his daughter and wife after the tragic crash that took his life last Thursday night.
Kotowicz was an executive at Sub Pop Records. He had just picked his daughter up from daycare and was headed home when a car smashed into his Subaru at the intersection of 15th Ave NW and NW 75th St, pushing it underneath a truck. Kotowicz was in a coma until he was taken off life support on Saturday night, surrounded by his immediate family.
The memorial service for Kotowicz will be held at 1 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 1 at Town Hall (1119 Eighth Avenue. Directions and parking info here.)
A fund has been set up to help the Kotowicz family. Please make checks payable to the Andy Kotowicz Family Foundation.
