    To my Aunt Sandra, I already miss you, your smile, and that infectious laugh. I hold on to the many memories of all of us kids growing up together, and it makes me smile. Myself, Robin, Gina, and Cullie, grew up together with Lisa, Tammy, Chris, Troy, and Adam. I remember many fond memories of joy and laughter, and a big helping of mischief and mayhem that I wouldn’t change for the world. Sending my Prayers to you all.

    To the Family of Sandy,
    We were members of the QHS Class of 1958 with Sandy. Throughout the years we had lost contact with her.
    Sending sympathy thoughts to you..
