Dear Sandy, my fun loving friend and deep thinker! Met at cedar Crest College in PA as suitemates and became best friends in those early young adult years. Regret that we lost touch with each other but glad you lived a committed active and fun life.

Funny Sandra 1990

Although it's been 45 years, I remember very keenly Sandra's sparkle, intensity and charm. Sorry to lose her, and sorry she had such difficulties during the last years. Condolences to her family and friends.
