Sandy I didn't know you very long but it seemed like I knew you for a lifetime. You were the sweetest person and you would do anything  for anybody. When you met me you were moving next door to me and less then 6 months later you were leaving to go back home and you had a really bad cold, if I knew that would be the last I see of you I would not of let you go. I look to you like a sister I needed so bad and never had and needed badly. You were the best of the best friend  I could ever have I could see it in you when we met. Im gonna die one day too and when I do I will find you. Until we meet again I will never not stop thinking about you. I miss you and Shaggy everyday I look at your place next door.  Why do the good die young when I keep getting older and still alive?  I know your at peace with no pain. . I will see you someday when im finished here. We can go ghost people I promise. 

Sandy and I have been friends for 43 yrs . We meet the first day of high school she asked me a question in study hall and we got in trouble for talking and had to stand against the wall it might have been the first  time but was not the last. 
Sandy wasn’t just my friend she was my family . She was there through all my good time and my bad time she was with me when I lost both my daughters . Took off work and was there I m not sure I would have made it through with out her .  I miss her so much . 
May we meet again  . Love you 





I remember when you let me and my cat , Kahli, stay with you until I could find a new home.  When you came home from several weeks on the road, I would make breakfast for you or take you out to eat .  
Shaggy was happy to be home too and I enjoyed  his company.  With the exception of Shaggy trying to walk past Kahli sometimes.  Kahli would hunch her back up and ruffle her fur up on her back. Poor Shaggy had a hard time trying to walk around her.  Shaggy was a great companion to you while you were on the road .
I enjoyed your phone calls when you were on the road and I wil miss those random  phone calls . Your heart was very big  and kind,  Sandy!!
You will be dearly missed by your friends. 

I remember when Sandy was at our house and our new-to-us rescue dog, a Havanese named Scruffy, jumped up on her lap and just melted in her lap. I had never seen Scruffy do this before as often as we tried to get him to do so. We just figured he was a high-strung dog. Along came Sandy to show us it took patience, a relaxed posture,  and a huge love-energy towards dogs to get Scruffy to feel secure enough just to "chill." It took a couple days, but Scruffy was on my lap watching TV too!

The first time I met you was when Keith borrowed your chivette to take me on a date. Keith and I were only 15 but he had been driving your car for a while. I told my Mom he was 16 and had his license even though he was younger than me. We became friends instantly and even though we've had our ups and downs we stayed friends all these years. Some of my best memories are of hanging out at Lake Farms Park,  our crazy four day weekend road trips to Colorado to see Keith, hanging out at Adrian's house, and of course, who can forget our nights at Eagle Crest Bar. I hope you found Bandit at the other end of the rainbow bridge and are reunited with your Mom and Dad. Fly high you sweet soul. I will miss you 💙

I remember the day we met. We were in IL getting loaded and you were having trouble getting your tandems to slide, so I jumped out of my truck and gave you a hand. We talked for a while and then we went on our way. A few days later I get a call from my dispatcher asking if I would take you home cause you had gotten hurt of the job and couldn’t drive and of course I said yes and from that point on we were friends.  We have made many memories over the years. You became a huge part of mine and my family’s life’s. You weren’t just a friend, you were family to us. We love you and we miss you so much. I love you Sandy and I think of you always. 

We met walking to Glendale school. Eventually I would meet you at Camden Road and we would walk together. You had already been through a plastic surgery or 2 on your mouth and were really self-conscious.  We stayed walking partners until you started Sennett. We had different people we hung out with so it was only a "hi" as we passed in the hallway.
By the time Lafollette came around we became good friends and would hang out often.  Mornings you would pick me up on your way to school in your Impala and peel out in front of the house. My mom would shake her head, but she liked you and didnt say a thing.  You have introduced me to your friends and in return you learned of mine. We made us a nice click of friends.
Even through the years of ups and downs, we remained friends till the end and am grateful for that.
When we were young, we promised each other that when one of us dies, the other would have a beer at their grave. Back then we thought we were invincible and didn't think it would ever happen. My next trip back to Wisconsin, we will have a beer. Until then, Rest in Peace.
F/A Keith
