Not sure what to say?

Marietta/Gina: I have great memories of working with/for Sandy at Camp. I came in with his first staff in 1980 and then left with him after 4 summers. In hindsight, I realize Sandy gave me some of my earliert lessons and examples of leadership as well as providing me with my first opportunities to be a leader myself. He was always very smart, fun and energetic and I will not forget him. Best to you and the extended family.

hi Kathy, I am so sorry for your loss. Sandy and I go way back, although I have not seen him since our class reunion a few years ago. 19 of my classmates are now gone. I am retired and living here on the lakeshore.

Hi Marietta, I am so sorry about Sandy's death. We double dated many times in high school, and went through confirmation together. Many fond memories of him. 19 of our classmates are now gone. Maybe will see you this summer here on the lake.

Marietta, I am so sorry to hear about Sandy. We had so many good times at Camp Manitou-lin. He was a great guy. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Kathy,I am so sorry for your loss. Brothers are special no matter how old we are. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Marietta
I am so sorry for you loss. I wish I could be there to talk to you and give you a hug. I have fond memories of Sandy's humor and his kind gentle nature. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Marietta and Gina,
I have the fondest memories of working for Sandy over thirty years ago. His generosity of heart and of laugh stays with me even today. I also remember how much he loved you both, and how much he loved Camp Manitou-lin. I still picture him standing on the porch of the old A-Frame, looking out at the land and waters of the Great Spirit.

Marietta-
So very sorry to hear of Sandy's passing. Please know that Michael and I are keeping you in our prayers.

Cathy and family - please know that you are lifted in prayer by your UCPC family. Peace be with you, Marietta, Gina and her family during this time of loss.
