Sandra L. McLaughlin

Sandra will always hold a place in my heart. I will always remember the wonderful times we had going to lunch at Olive Garden, Applebees or Longhorns, and then shopping afterwards. It has been my privilege to know such a wonderful person. The suffering is over. Rest in peace my dear friend.

Mom, I don't even know what to say here because my heart is just shattered. I am so happy that you get to be with Jim, Grandma, Meme', and the others that have gone before you. I'm going to miss our long talks and visits but like I told you before you passed, you will be with me in my heart and soul forever as our love and bond cannot be broken by ANYTHING. So, until we meet again, I will carry you in my heart and where I go, so shall you. Love, your Debbie Doo

The most loyal friend I ever had.... over 40 years of friendship and 20 years working together in Bar Harbor. Sandy and Jim were the best folks I every worked with and we shared many Winter visits to Dunedin. There will always be a special place in my heart and fond memories of times we all spent together. Never was there a more honest or loyal friend. She will be forever missed and my love for her will never fade... We will meet again.

Oh dear Sandra I can’t believe your gone. You were a lifeline to a time gone by. I loved visiting with you talking about our our faith and family. You were so loving and kind. I find peace in knowing you have met our Lord and are on your way to eternal paradise. I hold onto my childhood memories when you would come up to visit with your huge camper and Mitchell St would be at a still as you backed it into Aunt Pats drive way. It was always an exciting time for me. May Eternal rest be granted...

I know, in my heart, that you are in a beautiful place, how do I put into words the loss that I feel, impossible. We shared the incredible bond of sisterhood.

We shared over 50 years of amazing times together, whether here in Groton or at your beautiful home in Florida. We shared unforgettable vacations together as well.

You will always be the very best sister and best friend that I could ever have. Your light shines within me every day.

God bless you and...
