Rich & Heather, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Growing up with Sandy was a blast. Although we lost touch I am sure Sandy's energy and laugh followed her everywhere. My thoughts are with you and my deepest sympathy.

To Sandy's Family,

Sandy and I first met at TACOM, and worked together in the early 1908's. She was well liked by all and was a friend to me. Joann, and I last saw her at her retirement party last May. All who knew her will miss her. Our thoughts are with you.
