I worked with Sandy at Alltel Telephone years ago when we were both Operators. Sandy was a fun- loving person who always had a smile. She loved her kids and husband and talked of them often. She was a joy to work with and even though it has been a lot of years, I know she was still a joy to all who knew her.
Prayers and love to all the family,

Mrs. Sandy was such a sweet and beautiful soul and will be missed. I got to meet her when my mother was moved to Countryside after breaking her hips. Mrs. Sandy was the first person that mom met, and she looked after her for several months making sure she got whatever she needed or wanted. I am so glad that I got the pleasure of meeting her and always enjoyed our visits. Many prayers for you and your family.

Your mom was one of my favorite clients. She always filled the room with her sweet laugh and smile. She was a very sweet lady who will be missed dearly. Many prayers for your family.
