Sandra was a beloved mother, wife, Nana/Nina, sister, aunt, friend and nurse. She cared for so many in their last days, during her nursing career of over 40 years. She loved animals and had quite a following of cats that she fed daily 😊. She loved her Bischons and her current one, Barney, was by her side through it all. She fought a tough battle with cancer but decided it was time to go see her grandson, Chasey Bear who went to heaven last year.

Mom by Darrin Smith

How do I find the words Standing here today So I asked God What to say

How do I talk? Sum up a life Sister, Aunt, Mother, Wife.

She was Earth's angel With Heaven's hands Lost loved ones arms Is where I know she lands

Arms wide open But in a hand there is a toy Because I think she left us early To go find a little boy

Chase and my momma Together forever My momma and chase together forever

I hope heaven knows It's now a better place I'm sure heaven glows because of Halos from my mom and chase

I'll miss you mom Lots of people will Holes in our hearts No one can fill

Don't know how to begin To let this pain go But now it's your turn mom To send us a rainbow
