Sandra was one of my favorite people. We went to the same church and shared lots of hugs. She was one of the most humble people I have ever met. Bethel Temple will never be the same without Sandy’s cheery face and the love she had for everyone no matter what race they were or how well she knew a person. I will always remember Sandy. How could anyone ever forget her?:)

Sandy was in my Sunday school class for a few years. I enjoyed so much her sense of humor and each Sunday I looked forward to her hugs and never ending smile. at that time I remember calling her once a week to see how she was doing. I felt it was important to connect with each one in my class to let them know they are family and not just students. She was and is still a precious person who will definitely be missed. There is no doubt she is in Gods wonderful company. Fred, she loved you so much and may our lord bless and strengthen you in this time of your grief

Sandy and I first met over a mix-up of winter coats at church. She came running back down the hall exclaiming “I have your coat, I have your coat!!” We laughed and laughed and ever since had been great friends. No one could match her winning smile and great hugs–we sought each other out to give hugs for the day. I’ll miss her greatly. Heaven is a more beautiful place now.

Sandy was such a kind and loving person. She sat behind me in church and we shared scriptures together.
Always trying to further herself reading the Word. Sandy was always happy with the joy of the Lord on Sunday mornings.She will be missed.

Sandy was a sweet, kind woman. She attended our church, Bethel Temple, for a good number of years, and she sang in the choir, attended Sunday School, and read God’s Word, the Holy Bible regularly. She always had a ready smile, and she was well liked. We pray that her family will be comforted in knowing that she was an active part of the church and that she was well liked by those who knew her. Sandy will be missed, but we believe she is with the Lord now.
