John, Mark, Lora, and family, you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Sandy was
a wonderful person, and great inspiration to me during my teen years when we all
attended the Ray of Hope. I will never forget Sandy and her wonderful smile, and
the love of Christ she always showed. I still remember Sandy and Larry singing
"I am getting ready to leave this world" in face I have a tape here from
the Ray of Hope of that song. Well Truly she was ready and there is no doubt in
my mind that she is shouting on streets of gold, and talking with Jesus. She has
won the race, now we all need to be sure and remain faithful. I love you all and
I am praying for you.
