There isn't a week that goes by that I don't have some memory of you all and Sandy and what a wonderful childhood I enjoyed with you in Longview on Garfield St. Best wishes to you all in your healing process.

Dear Bob and Family,
I have known both Sandy and you for an awfully long time. I have a hard time accepting that Sandy is no longer with us.
We shared a lot of good times growing up in Longview and, although we have gone our separate ways, I still remember those times fondly. My prayers are with your family and you.
Your friend,
Jim

I was sad to learn that Sandy had passed away. We certainly were long-time school mates and I hoped to finally reunite at our upcoming 50th highschool reunion in 2010, My thoughts go out to Bob and Sandy's sisters whom I also remember with respect. May God be with you all.

In this world true hearts are rare. Such was Sandy. We are richer for her in our lives.

To the entire Manthe Clan,
Sandy truly touched my life. Like a second mother she seemed to own me and be there for me in my youth. She always had a smile and something witty to say. She seemed to have ESP and always knew when I was up to trouble. In fact, now I think about it. She also would have a look that made me have to think back to see if I had done anything. I truly loved her and my deepest thoughts go to Bob, Shawn and all those other rascal Roberts.
I have lost touch...

It was a pleasure to help you with cleaning your home or homes (the old and the new one). You and your family will be in my prayers and I will help take very good care of your mother in the mornings with my grandmother Marie.

Cousin Bud and family,
We were truly sorry to hear the news about Sandy. She was a fun person with a quick smile. She was also a very good sport and hostess of the "Schwegler" family reunions held at your Toutle River home. I remember the first reunion when you were just beginning to have your home built. (I think that was about 34 years ago) You were living in a trailer but you and Sandy were excellent hosts to your guests. You made the most of it. Give our condolences to your family...
