Sandy was always such a loving lady when I saw her at church. I am thankful for the fine care that she has had all these years from her sister Suzanne. I am sure that Kirby and Doris are so happy to have this elect lady back home with them. May the Lord comfort her brother and sister and all others who loved her at this sad time. She will be missed by all who knew her.
