Over the last 20 years I have had the blessing to get to know Sandra and was impressed to see a strong independent woman with a kind heart and caring soul. She loved her family deeply, had many devoted friends, and walked through pain and adversity with an unwavering faith and love for her God, always keeping with gratitude for her life.
I will always have the sweet memory of sitting in her bedroom watching The Shack, and talking about the beautiful message it had. My prayers are for Sandra's hearts to be healed and hope they have comfort knowing she's home now with God even though we miss her.
Sandra was a loving kind honest beautiful woman I am so grateful to have known her. Rest easy friend. Prayers and love sent to the family
