I am so saddend to read this about Sandy. I was lucky to have worked with her at Ralphs many years ago. Although it has been over a decade since I've seen her I will always remember her gorgeous face, and amazing personality. As everyone has said she was one of a kind!
May her family find some comfort in their cherished memories.

From the moment I met Sandy she drew me in. Her magnetic personality, her beautiful smile, and her amazing sense of humor. She was always so warm and had am amazing ability to keep things real. It seems so unfair that she was taken from this world at such an early age. My prayers go out to her family. I pray we remember her greatness instead of focusing on the why. This world isn't as bright without you Sandy!

Her smile and positive attitude and love for her family and friends were incredible. She was truly an inspiration to many and she made this world a better place with her kindness, cant say enough except she was one of a kind and if you had the pleasure of knowing her you will never forget her...What a special person to have known.

Dear Sandy and Family- I am so sorry for the loss of this wonderful person. I remember Sandy when she was 10 years old when the familes would get together. You always had that smile of yours that just lit up the room.You were always happy and had your smiling face on. I know were never kept in touch,as most people have so much going on in their lives as we all get older, but I really enjoyed the times when I came by Ralph's and we talked and laughed about old times. We never plan on this happening to any of us,and this is another reason when we see friends from the past- 'TELL THEM IT WAS GOOD SEEING YOU AGAIN AND GIVE THEM A HUG AND TELL THEM YOU LOVE THEM." It's sad that it takes death in one's life to bring this out but I am VERY GLAD" that when we saw each other that we were able to do that. You will be greatly missed and Sandy " I LOVE YA" Love your friend from the past and in the future- Butch S. Class of 1974

Sandy always had a big welcome smile and combned with her great sense of humor made the trip to Ralphs always fun. She was a leader in the field of good old human relations! We loved going to see her and will miss her beautiful smiling face. Sheila and Jerry Scala - Encinitas CA
