Deepest sympathy to the family of Sandra(Sandy)Smyder on her passing. Sandy was one of my best friends growing up on Rosewood Ave and attending Bardwell Grade School. We continued our friendship through the school years when her family moved to Elliott Ave We graduated from East Aurora High School together. Sandy and I shared lots of wonderful memories during those years. Prayers to all of you at this sad time. Sincerely, Judith (Judy) Haurykiewicz
