I graduated from Moore school Candia in 1959. Last week I was at the Saratoga Springs Auto Museum. They play oldies on the intercom. A song came on 'Let's go to the hop'. It immediately brought back memories of almost 60 years ago. I remembered very vividly that Sandra Whitcomb and I won the jitterbug dance contest at the Firehouse across the street. We moved out of NH after graduation, never having contact with anyone except David Mullen.
I decided to google Sandra to see if she still was in Candia. Directed to her obit, I nearly fell to the floor so moved by this surreal turn of events.
I'm so sorry for your loss.

My heart bleeds after receiving the news of Sandy's passing. I will always remember her just as she always was; a kind, and gentle soul with a devout love for community and cats. I will miss all the times I spent looking at, and fixing small things at her house. My heart felt prayers are with each of you as you struggle to cope with this most difficult loss.

I will remember Sandy greatly from her attending my presentation at the Candia Library. She was so gracious and friendly. She will be missed. My condolences to her family in this time of loss.
