Sandra Extine Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Evergreen Staples Funeral Home on Mar. 12, 2026.
Sandy, known to most as "Jake" was born March 30, 1940 to Oscar & Ardette Jacobson, who had lived their entire lives on Puget Island.

Sandy was a true Norwegian and survived a couple of life altering events before succumbing to them on January 31, 2026.

Sandy is survived by her sister Marilyn of Washougal, WA, a daughter Julie of Longview, WA, and a son Scott of Skamokawa. She had three grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. She was proceeded in death by her youngest great grandchild, Otto.

Sandy worked as a secretary and office manager at Columbia Collectors Inc for 42 years. She was very involved with the Sons of Norway Lodge in Vancouver, WA, and loved helping with the breakfast there.

Sandy had many friends she met through different organizations. She will be dearly missed by all who lived in her apartment building, and nobody will miss her more than her family!

She was the rock. The matriarch. The glue that held her family together. Her love is her legacy that will live on in all of us.

A memorial will be announced at a later date.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
