To Nelson and family.
So sorry to learn that Sandra has passed. She was a sweet and loving person. We worked together at G.E
She was always smiling and so pleasant to be around. Was hoping that she would have a complete recovery, but GOD knows best. Her pain and suffering is over. My deepest sympathy and condolences to you. Love, Carol Clark & family.
