Sandra Ruth Eggert

Sandy and I shared our high school days together at San Marcos and as with all our other classmates, we were more of a family than just a high school. I was thrilled to have made contact with her again at our reunion, like finding a long lost sister. She will be greatly missed and remain one of the special memories of my life.

It is difficult to think of Sandy as not being with us anymore. She seemed to live life to the fullest. Even in her immense struggle, life was to be lived with positivity. She died just as she lived - with grace and dignity. We do miss her immensely.

"I love Sandy" Gaby would say. When I came along I had to earn the kid's trust and hopefully come to share their love as Sandy had done. We missed her terribly but thanks to Mary she kept Sandy present in the classroom long after she had left. I was grateful to have been part of Sandy's life. We shared a lifetime in a blink of an eye. My heart hurts. Amiga querida descanse en paz.

Sandy, we will miss you. You certainly had a positive impact on my life and I will miss your kindness and words of wisdom. Thank you for everything.

we enjoyed our years of "drop in tennis"with Sandy at Randolph Tennis facility here in Tucson.
Our sympathies to her famiy and friends.

It was with great sadness that I received notice of Sandra's passing from one of our San Marcos Baptist Academy classmates. She was one of the finest persons I have ever known and firmly believe that all who knew her then share these thoughts.

I had the pleasure of working with Sandy when I illustrated her book "Golf is Fun". Her love and enthusiasm for golf was contagious, and my young boys caught the bug and took some lessons, serving also as models for some of the drawings. She was a bright spot in our lives and will be greatly missed.

Sandra was a high school classmate of mine (1949-1950). She and I shared many happy moments. I have been corresponding w/her via email for the past several years. She was a happy and wonderful friend!

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.
