To the family of Sandy:
I am so sorry for the loss of Sandy. Sandy and I were best friends our senior year of high school at Central and also when we were undergraduates at UNO. We would go to her family's cabin almost every weekend in the summer to water ski and enjoy the lake. Her parents were wonderful to us - my memories of Sandy and her family will be with me forever. She was a wonderful and caring person. May she rest in peace.

To the family of Sandy:
I met Sandy about one year before she moved to Costa Rica. She attended the Saturday morning AA meeting that was my first meeting ever. She was always so welcoming and helpful. I attribute my sobriety in part to the love and support she gave me. She was very helpful as I struggled through my first months of sobriety. I was happy for her when she moved to Costa Rica but sad for the lost fellowship. I extend sympathies in your loss and with time, hope these words will lend to your good memories of Sandy and how she touched so many lives.

To the family of Sandy,
We are so sorry for the lost of Sandy. A few years ago she was our neighbor on Goldenrod. One of the things I remember about Sandy was all the beautiful flowers she had in her yard & garden. Sandy had the magic touch when came to flowers. She always had a kind word for everyone and tried to help them too. Our prayers and thoughts are with all of Sandy's family.
God Bless & take care!

I worked with Sandy in David City when she was a counselor here. She was a very compassionate person and I liked her a great deal. She suffered much in her life and I know she is now at peace. My sympathy to all who loved her.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Sandy through meetings and sharing volunteer duties with her at The Cat House shelter. She was a very kind and generous woman. I was shocked and saddened to hear of her passing. My heartfelt sympathies go out to her family. I know she will be missed.

Dear El and Richard and family. I know it has been many many years since we've been in contact. I am your cousin/niece in Lincoln. My dad and Zette were brother and sister. I am so very sorry to hear about Sandy,came as quite a shock, as I'm sure to you all as well. Richard, I have no idea where you are living now, and uncle El, I assume you are still in Omaha. I hope to see you all on Saturday. You will be in my prayers always, as will Sandy, a life taken much too soon. One day at a time and sometimes one hour at a time. Her loss will be felt by many and for a long time. Praise God for her life on earth, and now her everlasting life in Heaven.
All my love, Susan
