    I only know Sandy through her daughter, Jamie who married my grandson Patrick. Sandy must have been an outstanding mother to have produced such a successful and caring family. I am sure there are many happy memories to sustain everyone through this very sad time. Gerry Jacobs (Patrick’s grandmother)
