You might be gone mom, 15 years now at that. You are in my thoughts and dreams. I always remember your caring loving heart. You would always give a helping hand, with no expectation to gain anything in return. You were a very honest and sincere women. Your smile would light up the room. You were just so beautiful. You would give your shirt off your back just to give a helping hand. Anyone I’ve ever met has loved you. You were just so kind and very blunt. Some would say that maybe isn’t a good thing. People appreciated you for your “ telling it the way it was”. I love you mom. I will continue to remember you, talk to you in my dreams. Continue to celebrate your anniversary. Love you mom
Love you always
Your daughter Samantha xoxo

Gerry and family - So very shocked to hear of Sandra's passing. Terry Kennedy and I were talking about her a few weeks back and we were reminiscing about the good old Corvette days. I only wish we had all gotten together before Sandra left us.



Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sandra . . . a mother, a sister, an aunt and a friend. She was always there to give a helpful lift. Eventhough she was miles away, she gave strength, inspiration and admiration. Sandra is an Angel high above where the skies are ever so blue taking care of all of us. If you look towards the heavens, you will see Sandra smiling at you.

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I am so sorry for all your loss.



I will always remember Sandra with her great sounding laughter. she could make you laugh just by hearing her laugh. And it would make you chuckle when she would say "Oh, Gerry".



Her grace and her beauty will forever be in all hearts and in the legacy of her two beautiful children through their hearts and their lives.



May you all find a peace with the wonderful memories of her life.
