Thanks for making memories with me at backyard barbecues, fourth of July shenanigans and girls weekends. Rest peacefully my friend.
So many years, so many memories. We will all miss you Sandy!
Sandy was always the neighbor who gathered us together for bbqs and chats. Her recognizable voice and laugh I will never forget. Losing Cindy broke her heart. I remember when she told me how ill she was, I just could not believe it. Sandy saved many lives by teaching us to to recognize the symptoms of a reaction to sulfa drugs. In her pain, she made sure that no one else went through the loss if their child.
Gina kept her young with soccer matches, and two grandkids.
She deserved to grow old, scrapbook family memories for decades to come. Heart breaking, and forever a friend.
