I am sorry for loosing Sandi so early. We had been friends so long ago, going to concerts, parties, stay overs. It was always a good time to be with her. My favorite memory of being with her was when we went to see the Moody Blues at the old Chicago Amphitheatre. What an evening. Then some 35 years later going to see them again and I just kept remembering that night. It was such a happy memory. Then a short while later I had seen her on the way to work downtown and told her about it. We just laughed. It was always good to see her and I'll never forget getting together with her and Linda that one last time a couple of years ago. It just felt like the old days. Sandi was all about music, her good heartedness and kindness to people and animals. I will miss you so much. Rest in peace.

Sandy was a fun loving person that I will never forget. She has been a real good friend to me. We had a lot of fun together in the past - going to parties, concerts, games, etc. She was a Taurus like myself. My birthday is April 21, 1952. May she rest in peace and may the good Lord take care of her.

Sandy was a warm-hearted, giving and loving Taurean free spirit who will forever live in my memories. She is the person who introduced me to the deliciousness of Mexican resteraunts and brought me to my first concert. As a teenager I affectionately refered to her as "Auntie Deadhead". May eternal rest be hers and may God's loving light shine on her forevermore. She may be gone but she will not be forgotten. I do believe Sandy would like us to remember her with a prayer, and celebrate her life with music, a beverage and something yummy. I feel she is at peace now with her sisters and family, whom she loved very much.
