Dear Stan, Steven & Stacy,

I was so saddened & shocked to hear of Sandy's passing. It was only a month ago that we laughed & chatted together with your entire family at the Cafe. As always, Sandy was a happy, vibrant, women & one which I had always admired. I still can't believe her time here is done. Surely, God has a greater need for her spirit, laughter, and smile up in heaven. No doubt He has her very busy helping Him do His work. I wish you all my deepest sympathy & I pray for you all during this difficult time of mourning. I hope to see you again sometime on Marco.
My prayers are with you all,
Sandy Franchino
