What a lovely friend with such grace! I am baking special treats for my son's wedding which Sandra also enjoyed to do. Sending thoughts and prayers to all her loved ones!

Christmas time brings out the bakers. I want Sandra's family to know how much I cherish my memories of her hosting parties at Isla and making such delicious goodies. She was so regal and so genuine! Prayers are being sent with love!

I just heard the sad news of Mrs Drake. To Don, Todd and Troy and entire family, my sincere condolences. Mrs Drake stood out as a beautiful woman, a kind and great teacher, and great mother to her kids. To Coach Drake, please accept my condolences on behalf myself and all the Hayden's.

Condolences to her family and friends who loved her dearly. She was loved by students who were lucky enough to have a class with her.❤

We were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of my cousin Sandra. Growing up in Illinois she was like a big sister to me. Her positive, bubbly, enriching personality will be deeply missed. I will always hold many fond memories of Sandra. Unfortunately we will not be able to attend her celebration of life but send our sincere condolences to Don and families.

My love of cooking and baking comes from Mrs. Drake. She was as beautiful on the inside as she was the outside. I still have my Betty Crocker cookbook from her class & I think of her everytime I look at it.
Heaven definitely gained an angel! Prayers sent for the family.

Hearts and prayers to family. Great memory of Sandy jumping from her disabled convertible ride in the Carroll County Fair parade finishing the route past the grand stands on foot with the crowd roaring their appreciation!

I'm so sorry to hear of this. Sandra was a beautiful person and one of the best teachers I ever had. She was always one to listen and be helpful with anything. She was inspirational and someone I have always had tremendous respect for.
