Sandra Lee Alden

Sandy was born in Bedford, Ohio, on June 13, 1942, to parents Clyde and Helen (Ackerson) Rearding. She retired from Robinson Memorial Hospital after 20 years as the manager of the snack bar and had also cared for children in her home for a few years.

Sandy had a bubbly personality, loved to travel and enjoyed baking. She loved the beach, especially time spent with her husband Jim at their condo in Hilton Head Island. Most of all, she relished time with family and friends socializing outside on her deck.

Sandy is survived by her husband of 64 years, James “Jim” Alden and her children Lynette (Doyle) Dodds of California, James (Emma) Alden of China, Lisa (Lucien) Comeau of Massachusetts and Jens Kammann of Florida. She also leaves her beloved nine grandchildren: Jacob, James, Jennifer (Christopher), Dustin, Kamei, Leland, Leah, Angela, and Daniela. Her great-grandchildren Harley, Sequoia, Ellowyn, Willow, Rowan. Left also to cherish her memory is her sister Ida Mae (Dick) Schoppelrey.

She was preceded in death by her parents.

Her family wishes to extend a special thanks to caregivers Tia, Missy, and Tracy.

Per her wishes, cremation is being honored and a Celebration of her Life will be announced at a later date.
