I´ve only known Sandy for a few short years. We worked together at Mercy Health St. Rita´s Thrift Store. All of our volunteers and customers loved her for her calm, gracious , and helpful demeanor. She will be missed by all--especially me. Rest in peace, dear friend!

Sincere sympathy to the family. I have fond memories working with Sandra at the Master Gardeners Seminar and the Fairgrounds gardens. She was always willing to go the extra step with all activities.

My sympathy to the family. I have good memories of Sandra when she was a customer at Flowers On Fifth. She was a dedicated agent at Odenweller Van Pelt and very pleasant lady. God rest her soul with peace.
