Death

Andrade was one of the 199 fatal victims of the TAM Airlines Flight 3054 crash at São Paulo, Brazil (the deadliest air disaster in Brazilian territory), along with his family (including his spouse Melissa Ura Andrade, his daughter Alanis Ura Andrade and his brother-in-law André Doná Ura).

They went to Porto Alegre, where they attended a party at a farmhouse owned by the football player Ronaldinho Gaúcho, while Andrade was making a deal about a contract with the player, along with Gaúcho's brother and agent, Assis Moreira, and they were returning home on an Airbus A320 that crashed during landing at Congonhas Airport.[2]
