I worked with Sandy at OMC for several years. I was also privileged to be part of her care team. She had a heart of gold. She was honest and you knew where you stood with her. So very sorry for your loss. May your memories bring you comfort.

I worked with Sandy for 20+ years. She taught me a lot and I always enjoyed working with her. She would love to brag on her family and was so proud of all of them! She was a great person to work with and would do anything she could to help you. So very sorry for your loss! May God Bless you and comfort you!

My thoughts and Prayers are for the family. Sandy was an amazing Lady and I am so glad that I had the opportunity to know her. I think of the “catching up” that she and Ed are having, she loved him so much.
