Although our time together was not often enough Sandy always added joy and laughter to every visit. Families spread out physically but not emotionally, As children we always had fun. I will never forget the time Sandy saw her first snowflake. She had such love for her family and life. Her laughter and smile always brightened up the room. She will be greatly missed. I love you Sandy. Rest in peace.

We just returned from vacation and were deeply saddened to hear of Sandy's passing. Sandy touched our lives as well as the many patients who came to her at our dental office. Her welcoming smile and joyful spirit will always be remembered. May she now enjoy perfect peace as is so fitting for this blessed woman who showed us the face of God while in our midst. Our deepest condolences, Gregg and Janice Cheshire

Thank you all for your kind words, yes Sandy will be missed. I would ask a favor of you all, spend more time with the ones you love, touch them more, talk more, share more but most of all "LOVE THEM MORE", because I have found that it is true we are only here for a short time. The Love of my life is gone, her spirit has been set free, now she is everywhere .

Dear Sandy, One with the Universe...You created yourself as immortal each time a person completed a communication course, completed with another human being or took an action consistent with having a life he/she/you loved.

The difference you made in the quality of life for humans will last for generations, for people whom will never even knew you existed. You gave the gift of LIFE!

Dear Friends and Family of Sandy,

I met Sandy & David 10 years ago at the baptism of my niece, Kristin Stearns. They came to our home with Suzanne for the baptism and to learn from our church about reaching out to the homeless. Their love for God and enthuiasm for helping others touched me deeply. My sister Suzanne has loved Sandy as a sister and Dave as a brother. I send my love to you all and sympathy for your loss. I believe Sandy is free from pain and right now with Jesus, her Savior and best friend, who she can see and hold and worship forever. One day we will see her as we meet our Lord and worship Him with her again. Love in Christ, Debbie Bradley

David, somehow I always had it that Sandy would make it! You're both that extra special breed of human - the ones we see in Landmark, people out to make a difference in the world. Sandy was always there for people and a wonderful spirit on this earth. I'm sure she's been called back because there's something special she was needed to do, either up there in Heaven or in her next life (whichever view one takes). I'm so sorry for your loss.

Our family called her "our Sandy." Although we knew her only through the dentist's office, that's how we all thought of her. She managed to accomplish what very few people can - making a trip to the dentist office something to look forward to!

She remembered the details of each of our lives, resuming conversations from our last visit as though we were in her chair yesterday rather than six months ago. Our family always joked about how appointments with Sandy ran longer than normal because not only did she talk to you, but she took the equipment out of your mouth so you could answer her back!

Her smile brightened your day, her infectious laugh was contagious, and the twinkle in her eye made you want to be her friend. During her time as a hygenist, she did so much more than just clean teeth. She will be missed!!

Our prayers are with you and your family as you walk through this very difficult part of the journey.

When the enemy death strikes your grief can be great,only the comfort that Jehovah gives will be greater in order for you to endure the pain and sorrow. In drawing closer to God in prayer, the Bible promises, "He himself will sustain you"(Ps55:22) I wish to offer my condolences in your time of breavement.
