For Sarah,Terry,Steven, and everyone who had a place it their heart for Sandy,
There are really no words to describe the overwhelming sense of loss that all who were close to Sandy are feeling. She had heart and spirit unlike anyone I have ever known and always tried to make the best of everything as She traveled along the road that we call Life.
Knowing Sandy as I have , I believe with all my heart that
She would want us all to find, In our own time and way, the strength to get through this tragic loss. Some believe that as long as someone is thought of , They are never really gone, I am one of those.
God bless all of you and if I am needed,I am here.

To all of Sandy's Family:
I have experienced a loss like yours and there are no words that will take the pain away,however there are words that if we believe in Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,we can be comforted:

And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes;there shall be no more death,nor sorrow,nor crying,There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away..Revelation 2:14...
And all who believe in him and follow him shall be together again someday..Thats what we have to hold onto...She loved you all so much..You are in my prayers....Just remember her love for each one of you, that was her gift to you....

We were not only shocked but deeply saddened to learn of Sandy's untimely passing. I have no words to offer to ease your pain at this difficult time. It never gets easier but you do learn to deal with if differently with every day that passes. Sandy took care of my baby girl and the way she would light up when sandy came every day was indescribable. They did things together all the time and i know that my little one benifited from the times that they spent together. If you need anything at all you know where we live. We will miss her smiling face and loving nature.
