We will miss our good neighbor! We are very sad to not see Sandy's smiling face every Wednesday at Freeman's Market, and all of our special events as she has attended plays, showers, weddings, etc. for all of our children.
We are blessed by her Faithfulness and know she is with Christ Jesus.

We have known Sandy for many years and she always had Christ first in her life. She would always cut up with us when we visited to sing at Harlem Church. She always had a smile, and had always complimented our music ministry. We loved her and we will truly miss her, but just temporarily. We know she is rejoicing with her family who has gone on before. We are praying for all her family in this time of great loss, may God bless all of you.
