Sandy and I were life-long friends, and distant cousins. She was named after my sister. My heart is broken, but there are so many wonderful, funny memories. We shared our deepest secrets knowing everything was safe with each other. I love and miss you, my forever bestie.

I worked with Sandy years ago at Rebman’s Store, I considered her my “work mom” and friend. She was a very funny and loving person, and there was never a doubt her children were her greatest joy. She is living in heaven as she so richly deserves, and has finally met Elvis! Sincerest condolences to her family and friends, and much love to Sandy.
