Sandy became a dear friend despite our knowing each other such a short time. Whatever she did- whether it was preparing dinner or organizing an event - had to meet her exacting standards. One of my favorite memories was being in the kitchen with Sandy and other EYC moms preparing goodies for a bake sale - we had a blast! Sandy's legacy will live on through her beloved family and all the people fortunate enough to call her friend.

Sandy was a beautiful and articulate woman. Her friendship meant so much to me. I will miss her cooking, gardening and parenting advice. She was one of the smartest women I know. My love and prayers are sent to her daughters and grandchildren.

To all of Sandy's family and friends--I share in your loss but her spirit was so strong--I stll feel her presence--she was a dear friend to me. A great gardener, interior decorator and community volunteer--she was all of these and much more to the town she lived and worked in here in Columbus. She was a great mother to Heather and was always contributing to her work at school, at church, and in the Columbus Girl Choir. Sandy was a great help to me in the Tennessee Williams Tribute--my stage...
