I just heard the sad news. Sandy was such a dynamic, loving person. I am so grateful to have known her. We had such a wonderful circle of friends -- Sandy and Tom and Werner, The Witzels, the Buttons, and my Ray, too. God bless her family.

"Mrs. Lomker" was such an amazing person & impacted the lives of countless young people over the years.
4-H was for me what Girl Scouts or Boy Scouts were for many others. It's where I first learned about teamwork. Where I was pushed to take on the challenging and the uncomfortable. Many of my strongest memories from my youth happened as a 4-Her.
I have Mrs. Lomker to thank for memories of the 1984 Summer Olympics in LA. Learning to play polo. Riding Belgians (glorious draft horses) bareback down the midway at the NYS Fair. Various public speaking and Horse Bowl competitions that were terrifying and gut-wrenching at the time.
As a Happy Horseman alumni, I will never forget her and the mark she left on my life.
