Even though we went our separate ways I will always remember Sandra ..Her parents and mine were school mates and good friends . She was one of my sitters when I was young maybe 4 till 10 years old .Her being only 8 years older than me we were friends.. I remember the farm in east Jay well. After traveling the long driveway you came to a warm house where Katherine always had a pot on the stove .After seeing she died kinda makes me sad that I didn’t stay in touch with her .. She was such a nice person as a teenager I’m sure she was a nice and loving person her whole life .. My condolences to the family ……Doug.
