She did factory work, and also tutored, helping to teach people to read.

She was enjoying retirement which had just started in February of 2016. Sandy was on a bus tour of Nashville and Memphis when she passed away suddenly, on May 2nd, starting her final journey. She will be missed by the many people whose lives she had enriched.

She is survived by her three brothers, Larry (Linda) of Muskego, WI, Jim (Mary) of Charlotte, NC, and Dan (Renee) of Waterford, WI.
