Sandra Marie Ackerman passed away peacefully at her home with her daughter by her side on Feb. 10, 2019, following a long, courageous battle with cancer. Sandy persevered to fight her terminal illness to the very end always putting her family and friends first and foremost.

Sandy was a beautiful daughter and friend to her mother, Emma Jones, a loving sister to all her five siblings, an amazing aunt, unforgettable mother and devoted "Grammy" to her three grandchildren and grand dog, Oscar.
Sandy began her professional career as a cashier at Warren Hospital. After graduating with a bachelor's degree in finance, she advanced to the position of controller in the finance department, retiring in 2012 after 37 years of dedicated service.
When Sandra entered heaven on Feb. 10, she was reunited with her beloved son, Kevin Daniel Shields, and late husband Carl C. Ackerman. Sandy was a kind heart and shared joy with everyone she knew and will be truly missed and never forgotten.
