 I renember when I first met Sandy, in Egg Harbor Twp. To our delight, we shared the same birth date! She was so graceful when she portrayed an angel in Greentree Church annual musical, which ran for 5 nights. Good memories of sitting around table at Dana's house, chatting away. May God bless Sandy's family & friends, I was so sorry to learn of her passing.

I love you very much mom...I feel your presence when I'm working, or when I feel like giving up. We went through a lot but we had so many good memories...You did your best raising us, and I will do my best to make you proud.

Sandi was our friend of over 24 years. We met in the library during children's story hour. At that time she was upset about her taxes and I shared with her she could do them herself. Thus we started a lifelong friendship. Sandi was very much alone raising 3 children and had also lost both her parents and her only sister. Several of us in the group were church members and witnessed to her that Jesus could fill her life and the empty holes in her heart. Sandi became a new believer as she was born Jewish. Our hearts were all overflowing that day. She had a beautiful childlike faith and a deep sense of spiritual things. She was eager to learn and loved her new Christian Family. 

She later moved to upstate New York with her children and eventually settled on Fort Myers, Florida. We still communicated through the years. She would pour her heart out to me about her relationships with her children and grandchildren. She always remembered our special days including Christmas. She was an avid reader and had a book business too.  She would share some of her book inventory with us as gifts on occasion. She was a true giver and a good listener.

Her recent plight was raising her Grandson and the joy that he brought her. She loved all her children and grandchildren! I know she is with Jesus (probably dancing and singing) as she did continue to try and seek him and his guidance in the end. I will never forget her nor will the rest of our family. Our hearts go out to her family with sympathy and prayers for comfort and peace! 
❤ Love Dana, Jim and Family

Philippians 3:20-21 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.

Rest in peace. You will be missed. You have a beautiful family that will see you again one day. God Bless.
