I have happy memories of Holidays shared with our cousins at Louis' and Shirleys. Later in life, Sandra always organized our family reunions. My mom, Mona really treasured her and enjoyed her. So sad for Bob and the rest. Rest in peace dear Sandra.

I'm sorry for your loss, Sandy was such a nice lady. When I would call for Bob for his bugle service and she would answer the phone I always liked our conversations. She will be missed!
