When Sandy lived on Loveland Ave, my family and I lived right behind her on Goodwin Ave. My sister and I used to baby-sit her children. My name is Diane and my sister is Connie, our mother was Helen Klecha. We were neighbors for a long time and although time has gone by, i was saddened to see she had passed away. May God bless your family at such a difficult time
