I want to send my deepest condolences to the family of this fabulous woman. Sandy was my neighbor for 20 years. I considered her one of my biggest fans. Over the years she never failed to compliment me on any and every accomplishment in my life. When I thought no one noticed, she did. She call me to let me know that my hair looked beautiful or she loved my outfit. She would comment on how my yard looked wonderful(after I had work on it all weekend). If I was working on my garden she would come out and talk to me. If I was mowing grass she would be waving at me from her window. She taught me the best potatoes salad recipe that my family request for every gathering. We have celebrated together, drank margaritas for Valentine's day and exchanged gifts over the years. I still look to see if her curtains are open or her lights are on. Sandy and Gail taught me and my husband so many things over the 20 years. I am blessed to have known such a caring, kind lady. I will never forget her.
