To Gerald, Pat, Lois and all Sandra’s family, my sincere condolences.
My main contact with Sandra was through Marigold Appliquers. Sandra was a long time member and participated with enthusiasm in all our workshops and all meetings through spring summer and fall. She will be missed.
I am unable to attend the memorial today but Sandra and all of you will be in my thoughts.
