My deepest condolences to Jim and family. Jim and Sandy were coworkers on a timber marking crew in Gunnison around 1983-84. Fun folks to work with , they had a paint gun fight and got turned completely orange! I ducked out, must´ve been a chore to get cleaned up! Sandy was always such a buoyant person and fun to be around. The best people always seem to leave to soon......she was one of those people.

Sandy was always so cheerful and always had a smile and ready to share a laugh. I am so sorry, she will be missed.

I met Sandy when I worked with JIM many years ago. I was impressed by Sandy's enthusiasm, her humor and friendliness. I will always remember her fondly and was honored to have known her. Gone too soon. God Gless you Sandy!

Missing you so Sandy as we approach your birthday. You left us too soon.

I first met Sandy at the Sun Ute Community Center along with Jim who both took Body Flow. I then realized that they hailed from Bayfield and I would often see her at the Post Office and around town. She was such a delightful person, always a smile and she was so into exercise. May she rest in peace knowing she left behind many people who loved her. She talked about her family all the time, especially Danika. I will miss her.

I am terribly sorry to hear about Sandra's passing. Such a great person. I skied, pickle balled and rowed with her. My sincerest condolences .

I will miss your laugh and the fun we had on the golf course. Thanks for being a friend.

Words can't hope to express how much sorrow I feel that you're gone. You were the kindest soul and had a heart of gold. Thank you for the laughter and love.

Ski's, boots, poles....one of my favorite one liners Sandy was known for. We love you all and miss her so much. She left an amazing legacy.
