She lived her life, always noticing where she could provide quiet acts of kindness and service, never seeking praise or recognition.

Sandy loved to paint and garden, play golf & travel with her sweetheart, and be silly with her kids and grandkids. She was diagnosed with cancer in June of 2014 and was determined to put up the fight of her life – through radiation & multiple rounds of Chemo Therapy along with every trial drug available, coupled with never ending bad news, she forged on. Quietly and with unimaginable dignity she fought, always assuring friends and family she was doing fine. Never wanting anyone to worry or be sad for her.
