Just learned of Cousin Sandra's death and want to send my sincere condolences to Frank and Gary as well as Sandra's sisters Donna and Marsha. When I married almost 40 years ago, she was so gracious in offering to participate in the Jewish ceremony to reach out to non-Jewish family members with Yakamas to wear during the religious service. I was so grateful she was able to be with us and be such an important part of making the ceremony comfortable and memorable for all. Sandra is a blessed memory for us all.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences at the passing of your mom. Sandra and I worked together in the real estate appraisal field many years ago. She was elegant, sophisticated, intelligent, interesting and warm. There is no doubt that Sandra added grace to every situation in which she participated.
Rest In Peace, beautiful lady!
