I know how stunned the family must, for I’ve been there myself. Please hold tight to Sam and help him in his hour of need. It will take him a while to be able to deal with the lost of his mother. My prayers are with you always.
I worked with Sandy at the Sheriff’s office and went on several trips with her. She was a tell it like it is kind of person and I enjoyed working with her. We are sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss. It is heartbreaking to lose a family member so young.
Sam, I can only imagine how you must be feeling. The shock! God bless your heart. I am always here for you and wish i knew what to say to make this easier for you. I loved your Mom like my own family and I loved being with your family and getting to all of them. I pray for all of y’all and just pray for peace of mind when understanding is so far out of reach. Love y’all dearly!
To Sam and Sandy’s family, I am so sorry for your loss. Sandy was a friend to everyone she met. Prayers and thoughts to all of you, may God’s peace be with you all.
I am terribly sorry for your loss. When i was a student at PH she was always there for me. I knew i had someone to lean on when times got rough. She showed me how to push through my inner demons. I’m saddened deeply this happened to your family. I loved her so much.
Really sad to hear about Sandy. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family as we all morn the loss of Sandy.
So sorry to hear of our loss. I have nothing but good memories of when we grew up. It hurts me because I live so
far away and we grew apart as we got older. Please let me know if there is anything we can do. I am her cousin Rosie.
So very sorry for the premature death of a sweetheart.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know this is a very difficult time for the family. Something that has always given me comfort is a scripture at Revelation 21:4, it says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
