Read MoreSandy and I were neighbors in the early 1950s on Columbus Drive. It was a dirt road at the time. Sandy and I were constant companions until my family moved across town in 1958.

Oh, Sally, I am so sorry to hear this. My parents loved Kay and Mac, and Sandy is one of my earliest friends from childhood. The last time I saw him on Tybee I showed him photos of them from the early 1960's that I had found. I had hoped to see him the next time I visited Savannah. We spent so much time together as kids and we always stayed in touch - although infrequently as we grew old. I shall miss him so very much. He was a fine man. The world is a lesser place without him.
