Sandy was our neighbor for many years on Atkins Ave. What an amazing gardener and dog-lover. She shared plants, babysat our dog on occasion, and was a great neighbor and friend. Our condolences to her family. Alison Kibler

Sandy was always the first person to greet me each morning with her gracious smile at C.V.M.S. Many a wintery morning she would personally call me to give me a heads up on the cancellations or delay times. She knew that I began traveling very early each school day to prepare for the school day. It was her kindness that she exhibited in her thoughtfulness that was apparent is so many different ways. Sandy made the middle school a wonderful place to work. My sincere condolences to the family. Linda Christy
