Above was the formal Obituary but below is the fun facts about Sandra!
Dick & Sandra made it to through their 60th wedding anniversary this past March. What a wonderful accomplishment and they truly loved each other.
One of Sandra's hobbies was knitting all sorts of items for the children, grand children and great grand children. She knitted I'm guessing for over 50 years.
Sandra was a huge Greenbay Packer Fan. She watched the Packers beat Tom Brady and the Bucs just this Sunday and passed away about an hour after this game.
Sandra enjoyed to travel and absolutely loved the mountains. Here favorite trip was to Alaska where they spent the majority of the summer.
Not just children like playing on their phones/tablets. Sandra especially liked online puzzles. Here computer skills were pretty decent also. She was known to email jokes to friends from time to time.
Sandra tried retirement but needed more people interaction. She went to work as a teller at a Luck Convenience Store & shortly worked her way into store management. It seemed she got to know everyone in the community and loved joking around with everyone.
