She also had a love of animals. Her teen years were spent riding horses and traveling to shows with her dad. Later in life she enjoyed having a pair of cats for many years. Her last two being Alice and Vera. Sandy never meet a stranger and always made new friends easily.

Very special friends Rick and Barbara Peevey of Bryan-College Station and Tom Bakewell of Reno, Nevada. Plus her two cat’s Alice and Vera.
Rather than flowers the family asks that you make donations to the ASPCA, ALS Association, or your favorite charity.
Sandy’s brother wish to add that a finer sister never lived, they were blessed and are better men for having her in their lives.
