My condolences, thoughts and prayers to all of the Rezka family. When I was a kid I was good friends with Tom, and spent a lot of time at the Rezka house. Sandra was always a gentle and kind girl and I am very sorry she has left us so early.

Please accept our deepest condolences. I was very saddened to hear of Sandra's passing. I have fond memories of Sandra growing up in Current River "down the back lane" from us.
