Words cannot explain the sorrow that is in my heart, but I know that Sandy "Red" is in Heaven with God. May he grant her eternal rest and bring peace to her family and friends.



I have alot of memories of times spent with Sandy, through Girl Scouts, our kids in Head Start, working together or just hanging out: these memories will get me through the loss of a dear friend.



To Jocelyn and Jennifer I would like to say: Have faith that she is with God, and that someday you will be together again. I know that it is hard to lose your mother, but have faith in God that he will watch over her and you also.



All my love,

God bless,

Merrilyn
