Sandra was my cousin but also a close friend. We usually met at the Galleria Mall for lunch and afternoon shopping sprees. We mostly talked about our families and laughed about our grandchildrens' antics. I'll never forget her love of life, commitment to family and her strong belief in her Christian faith. I miss her so much already but I know she is now safely in God's hands. In January of 2005, she made a quilt for me which I will always treasure. On it, she stitched the date, her name and "Salute" with a stitched picture of a glass of wine. So to Sandra, I say "Salute" and I love you! Janice and Niel
