I am sorry for the families loss.My deepest condolences.
What a day....I just found out today of Sandy's passing. I met Sandy 6 years ago working on the roofs in her Condos. She was 100 MPH and sharp as a tack. Sandy was a hoot!! Man did we have some laughs. I am going to miss and her group emails as many of you I am sure know the emails I am talking about.
I am going to tell a story if thats ok...
I met Sandy and her Friend Vicky at my friends bar one evening I told Sandy I could only stay for one. Well the waiter came over and said Sandy would you like another and she said why not the waiter asked me and I said well heck if she is having another one so will I. So we got to talking and I said man your really putting those down Sandy and she said well of course its only water and I thought she was definitely drinking something else. We laughed over that for about a year. Sandy invited my wife and kids to her church for a dinner and a concert one evening and it was special to be there and see Sandy with all her friends, she was always a beacon of light and fun to be around.
I would always offered to come to the hospital and drop something off or to visitwhen ever she got sick but she would not have that. The only way I found out she was in the hospital was from other board members. Unfortunately I did not know she was in the hospital this last time.
I am going to miss you Sandra Moorehead!! Thank you for being such an amazing person and friend to me and my family. Thank you for believing in me and always making me laugh.I thought the world of you
Love always,
Brent ,Erica and the girls
Yes Sandy God is Good

So sorry to hear of the passing of our friend and neighbor, Sandy Moorehead. She was a source of positive energy and light in our community where she served on our Board of Directors for many years. Sandy, you will be sorely missed, but we know you are with the Lord whom you served so faithfully.

We are so saddened to read of the passing of a dear friend Sandra Moorehead. We originally meet Sandra at church. She was a generous person, a kind person and a great soul of Faith. The Church of the Resurrection will not be the same without her smiling face. Though we didn't speak that often, we will miss her greatly.

May God hold you in the palm of his hand Sandra....
Love you.....Crystal & Clare Huff
