Sandy was born on August 28, 1943 in Hackensack, MN to Ewald and Carrie Nagel. Sandy was raised on a farm in Hackensack Minnesota with her siblings Donna (Westlund), June (Sykes), Robert, Gladys (Chelte), and Richard. She attended primary and middle school in Hackensack, MN and high school in Walker, MN. She married Harland (Jack) Hall Finney in 1961. Sandy and Jack had four daughters Patricia, Janell (Koering), Debby (Yates), and Lila (Rutten) and raised their children in Walker, MN.
Sandy married Ernest "Ernie" Cecil Richardson Jr. in 1991 and lived her remaining days in Walker, MN. Sandy and Ernie traveled all over the country in the early days of their marriage, and she recalled those travels with great fondness.
Sandy enjoyed many hobbies including sewing, crocheting, swimming, golfing, fishing, gardening, and snowmobiling. She earned the nickname "Handy Sandy" for her ability to figure just about anything out and to do anything she set her mind to. She was an active person for most of her life and ran circles around everyone!
Sandy was a beautiful and loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and friend to many. Sandy was preceded in death by her parents Ewald Otto Nagel and Carrie (Peterson) Nagel, by her siblings Donna (Westlund), June (Sykes), and Robert Nagel, and by her daughter Patricia Finney. Sandy is survived by and alive in the hearts of her siblings Gladys Chelte (Minneapolis, MN) and Richard Nagel (Hackensack, MN), daughters Janell (Brad) Koering (Brainerd, MN), Debby Yates (Bemidji, MN) and Lila (Derek) Rutten (Rochester, MN), and step daughter Rhonda Richardson (Minneapolis, MN). Others left behind to celebrate her memory include grandchildren Stan, Linnaea, and Grant Lindahl, John, Victoria, and Lexi Yates, and Julian and Chloe Rutten and by great granddaughter Pyper Lindahl.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to your local food bank or to the Walker Area Food Shelf. Sandy loved to feed people and was particularly fond of cookies, so please consider this in your offering.
