Mama was the woman that lived life to the fullest! She was a mother, friend, and artist. The woman that knew what to say to make a broken heart heal. Encourage you when you were down. Love you unconditionally, never give up on you, spread love and joy, compassionate, selfless, taught our family the value of hard work. We love you forever and always! You taught us everything except how to live without you.

Just, now, learning of Sandy's passing.
We unfortunately lost contact after Graduation and my moving to Chicago. And, that's a shame. I will always regret it.
During our entire Woodward years we maintained a close, exceptional Friendship. I considered her my " little Sister ", and for her, I was her " Big Brother ".
We had many confidential conversations. And, shared many good and bad happenings. She was sweet and beautiful, inside, as well as , on the outside. Sandy had a captivating smile and a super personality.
The things She wrote in my Year Books are truly Treasured. I have thought about her often, over these many years. She was very special to me.
So sorry we lost contact, but our time and friendship will always have a cherished place in my heart and memories.
I want to extend my deepest condolences and sympathies to her Family Members and Friends.
May she RIP.
