Mrs. Augustine was a saintly woman for the kindness and pureness of heart she exuded and can never be duplicated, my principal at christopher columbus and a good friend to have at your side. She cared for her students in a way that no other principal can and how she was like a mother to me. I will never forget the talks that we had back in the day. Sandra Augustine will never be forgotten because she was truly ONE OF A KIND. I love you Mrs. Augustine REST IN THE LORD

In 8th Grade @ 12 years old I did the electric slide with her (and most of the school) at a dance... I was fortunate later in life to work with her. She was always teaching you a life lesson whether it was just shake your groove thing, study hard, or just have fun.

Stephanie, Carol, Zachary, and Noah

Dr. Augustine and family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I am truly shocked and saddened by Sandy's passing. I worked at Pollicita when she was the Dean of Students;I learned so much from this soft spoken women who was so patient and kind. I also treasured the friendship we developed while I was at TRP.

With warm regards...
