Mrs. Clarke was my 7th grade homeroom and ELA teacher. Her love for books and teaching left a meaningful impression on me as I went into teaching myself. Rest in peace Mrs. Clarke.

My deepest condolences to Vince, Michael, Brian and all in the family. Sandy was truly one of the nicest and sweetest people anyone could ever want to meet. I know you will all miss her dearly, but know she will always be with you, watching over you and smiling down on you with her cute impish smile. Love you Sandy and may God Bless you and hold you in the palm of His hand. Rest in Peace Sandy, I will never forget you.

Sandra subbed a few times my first year teaching at Pennoyer, and despite only being there a few times, she left quite the impression on me. We´d often delve into our stories of teaching, but I preferred to listen to anything she had to share. Anyone could tell, she not only loved what she did, but she was meant to be a teacher. My most cherished memory of Sandra is our running joke. Every time she was back at Pennoyer, I´d jest with her and say, "Oh, it´s you back to stalk me again!" She´d smile and say, "Well, you´re my favorite person to stalk!"
Sandra made a few guest appearances in my life, but due to her warmth, smile, insight, humor, ability to listen, I only wish she made more, yet I´m grateful for impression she left on me.

What does a person say about someone you have known for 70 years. We shared childhood memories, teen year memories and growing old together memories. Sandra was always there for me. I truly loved her like a sister. We had a bond together that couldn´t be broken. I will miss her terribly and until we meet again. Love you always
