As some of you have probably noticed, a fruit truck has returned to the corner of President Street and Seventh Avenue in Park Slope. But no Andy.

Well, here’s the scoop. Andy had a stroke a few months ago. He is now recovering and in rehab. I spoke to his nephew who is operating the fruit truck (for Andy, I assume).

He told me that after the stroke, "Andy’s speech was really messed up. That’s why he’s in rehab. Also his sister died and his truck had to be trashed." The truck they are now using is on loan.

The good news is this: Andy expects to be back soon. But only two days a week. The nephew said that a lot of people had inquired about Andy. I’m hoping that all that concern and good wishes got back to Andy.
