I am so sad to hear of Sandy's passing. Sandy and I grew up together on State Street. I have a lot of good memories of our time together. She looks as Beautiful now as she did back then. The very vivid memory is when she was cutting my hair she had some kind of shears! Cut a hunk out of the back of my hair, we laughed, I cried. She was always fixing my hair. So sorry for your loss.
