Unconditionally devoted to her family, Sandy was a homemaker for most of her life. Although she held various jobs in the service industry, she found particular joy in caring for her family and friends. Renowned for her servant’s heart, Sandy consistently placed others before herself. Gifted with a green thumb, she loved gardening and had a special talent for growing plants and flowers. Not one to sit still, Sandy was always active and usually focused on completing her next project. Quite the playful soul, she also had a keen sense of humor that often generated a laugh or a smile. Despite her illness, Sandy remained a source of hope and encouragement to those around her, even during her last days.
