Loss of a loved one is never easy, we lost our oldest daughter the same day Sandy died ... our prayers are with the entire family, especially Dennis. Love Russ and Dalene (cousins).

My condolences to the family.
It was a shock to hear of her passing. I went to school with Sandy and remember her as friendly, fun-loving and a pleasure to be around. I'm sure she'll be missed by all who knew her.
May she rest in peace.
