Our thoughts and Prayers are with
you all and your families. We will
sure miss her. She was such a great person and truly liked to laugh and love life. Our family will really miss her.
Sandy was a wonderful friend and co-worker, she will be missed dearly. When we first met I was young and she tought be a lot of life lessons, like leaving the housework behind to play with by daughter Abby in which Sandy was right there to see even before my Grandma and Mother in law got to see her. She will never be forgoten. I am very honered to have know such a wonderful, funny person. We might have caused some trouble but we had a blast doing it, GCMC will never be the same without her. God bless all of her family and sorry I could not make the service we were out of town but I know Sandy knew where I was. Keep your heads held high and be proud of her, she was such a tough cookie. Until we all meet again.
