I just can't seem to find words today that express my deepest sympathy to Uncle John, Carolyn, Roy, Deana, Debbie, Jake, Gary, and the rest of Aunt Sandy's family. So I will share the words that my mom spoke to us before her passing......It's OK to laugh, cry, yell, scream, and even stomp your feet. Everyone grieves differently. Share your memories. As long as you share your memories, your loved one will never be forgotten. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers in the days, weeks, and months to come. God Bless You.

After hearing the news of Sandy passing away, I couldn't help, but remember all the things that her and I did over the years. The serious girl talks we had, the crazy things we sometimes did and the times when we just went shopping and stopped for an ice cream sundae on our way home. Those memories will always live with me and they are ones that no one can ever take away from me. Sandy and I were so much more than just friends, as we were sisters.
