Sandy was one of those people who made coming to work at Boeing interesting and enjoyable. We enjoyed talking about flying and life. Sorry that I can’t make it to the services but my thoughts are with you.
Gentle, kind, admired…this is the impression Sandy left on me. When someone you loves becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure! My heart goes out to you.
Kindest Regards,

I worked with Sandy while at the (then) McDonnell Douglas Helicopter Comapny plant in Mesa. He was a great guy and he surely will be missed. He left us too young though and will surely be missed!
