Born on August 7, 1940 in Lynn, Sandy was the loving daughter of the late George H. Smith, Jr. and Hazel M. (January) Smith. Sandy was raised and educated in Lynn and was a graduate of Lynn English High School with the Class of 1958. Sandy worked for T.W.

The couple enjoyed their time together and loved to devote time in their Lynn home. Sandy had a knack for making crafts, especially beautiful floral arrangements.
