She worked for several years at Walmart on the south side of Terre Haute where she greeted customers and helped out wherever she was needed. She earned her Associate’s Degree in Medical Assisting from Ivy Tech. In her spare time, Sandi enjoyed crocheting, camping, and teasing her beloved dogs, Sampson and Wolf. She always looked forward to fall festivals, especially the Cory Apple Festival, Popcorn Festival, and the Covered Bridge Festival. An impulse shopper, Sandi was a fan of QVC and anywhere else she could find a surprise gift for someone. She enjoyed surprising people with her random generosity and always put everyone else’s needs before her own. She was feisty and strong willed. Sandi will be deeply missed. A graveside service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, September 11 in Roselawn Memorial Park. Roselawn Funeral Home was entrusted with the arrangements.
