Good bye for now, my dear friend.  I was hoping for more time on this earth with you, but it wasn't meant to be.   Sending you off with lots of earthly love.  Tammy

Canapa family, 
My sincere condolences. I worked with Sandy at AT&T for a few years. She was one of my favorites. We were on the same account team. She was always reliable and helped solve a lot of AT&T and customer issues. After she retired we kept in touch. I always enjoyed our conversations. She was a great mentor and friend. Her quick wit and fantastic sense of humor was always appreciated. Sandy was very thoughtful and reached out when my daughter was born and checked in after I was in a ski accident last year and had surgery for a broken tibia. She told me this news was not encouraging as she was learning how to navigate moguls at 63. I recall her telling me she was excited to ski with her grand daughter in Loveland last year. I  wish you all strength through this difficult loss. 

Sincerely, 
Kyle King

Dave and kids
I can never express how blessed I feel having had part of Sandy in my life. Sandy filled such a void when she came to be Dave's wife   Dave's best friend, his closest companion.  What a perfect Fit. Absolute loving, and inspiring soul Sandy is.  There are simply so many great memories over the many years.  She was the kindest mother to her boys as well as my two kids over the years. My gosh you just can never ever fill this void. 
 I can find some comfort knowing, believing she is with God our Father; still watching over all the ones she loves and holds dear.

Sandy was my brother Ying, and she was Daves Yang, his perfect fit his everything. The way Dave and Sandy shared and showed love to one another is something truly magical. 

 She always brought a smile to my face when I was with her. Gosh I loved her wit and humor; I will miss this as well as her great cooking.

My fondest memories are all the holidays weather it was Christmas, thanksgiving or the 4th of July she brought such fun and laughs to the family.  Sandy just lit up the room always!

I am at a loss of words to describe my sorrow for Dave, DJ, Pat and Joe as well as everyone she knew loved and touched in her life. I know the loss is tremendous.  Just know I am so sadden she is gone.

I am so sorry to hear about Sandy’s passing. I always loved her zest for life, love of family and sense of humor. We usually got together when Carrie was in CO. Whether it was at a brewery, winery or bar, there were always stories to be told, AT&T memories to be shared and lots of laughs. She will be truly missed. 
Our deepest sympathies to Dave and the whole family,
Gail and Dave Herrmann

The laughing never stopped at the “Duke’s”.
We will treasure the memories we made together.

Dave,

Pat and I send our thoughts and prayers to you and  your family.  We are not very good at staying in touch, but our few times around Sandy left us truly know how amazing and nice she was.  In keeping with her wishes we made donation to the No Kid Hungry program at the Waukesh Food Pantry. 

Kirk and Pat
