Name: Lee Jones Date: 12/14/2021 5:24:25 AM Message: Sandy was always such a bright light. She was always smiling and cutting up, making others smile. I haven't seen Sandy in many years, but have such great memories when she and I used to run around together. One of my fondest memories is of me & Tammy trying to teach Sandy how to Schottische in Tammy's living room. We all ended up in a pile on the floor laughing our butts off trying to show Sandy the right steps. ?? My heart goes out to Tommy, Katie, Ginger and all her other family and friends. Prayers for peace and comfort.
