Amy and Becky,
My thoughts and prayers are with you now and in the coming days. Sandy was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever known. She and your dad were wonderful neighbors for many years and my girls and I have some great memories of them sitting on their front porch in the summer. I know how very much she loved your dad and how much she missed him. I can only imagine the sweet reunion they’re having now.

I used to love coming down to visit with you and watch the frogs hop around the pond. You would always make me laugh with our talks. I loved seeing you outside and stopping to talk or waving at you while you sat on the front porch. I love you, enjoy heaven with uncle Paul and Tony. My love is with you Amy & Becky!❤❤

Sandy and I met when we were 13 years old. We married brothers. We went through 6 pregnancies together(3 each) . We helped each other figure out how to be wives and good mothers through our teenage years while going through many boxes of Kraft macaroni and cheese, tuna salad and Pepsi. Many times we pooled our empty pop bottles to cash in for more Pepsi. We shared lots of trials and laughter during our learning years. I think it helped form a foundation for our marriages to last "till death do us part". She is back with the love ❤ of her life. Thanks for the memories Sandy. Amy and Becky find comfort in knowing that you gave your mother loving care.
