Posters, posters and more posters
Sandra was surprised by the many, and I do mean MANY posters and cards that were sent by her students from school. After she read them we posted them on the walls so that she could be surrounded by the love and prayers you are all sending her way. She is feeling much better and really appreciates all of the cards and things being sent to her. If she is feeling up to it tomorrow you may see a post from her, she is waiting get back on the computer!

Hello Sandy:
What wonderful comments from your students!! To be your age and to have touched so many lives is a wonderful blessing. I had the pleasure of meeting you in 1998 when Jami was getting married and you helped with the wedding. Thank you so much for the wedding veil. The cat thanks you also since he tried to destroy it the day of the wedding! ha ha
All our love and prayers are coming to you from Idaho. You are one awesome lady!

Hey Mrs. Gaddy!
I just want to let you know that you are so amazing! You've been one of the biggest inspirations to me and I could never thank you enough! In every aspect of my life, you've always been such a great influence. You've challenged me to be the best person I can be and always look at the positive side of things. You are the greatest example I could have asked God for! You're in my prayers! Hopefully I will see you soon!

Hi there, This is Jennah Custer.. again, but I think the first time I wrote you, it didn't post. I did that earlier today and its still not up. I'll wait a little bit longer, and if I don't see it, I'll write you again. All my love
Jennah
Ok so I realized that it didn't post cause that last one I just sent posted rather quickly, so I know for sure you didn't get the first one. This is Jennah by the way, and like i said in the first one I'll let the shock sink in before I start talking. It's been far too long since I've talked to you and that's my fault. I want to start off by saying sorry for keeping your books for so long. But now I think I'll keep them forever. Because you are forever. You don't even know what you mean to so many people. You were the whole reason I started writing in the first place. I think I was on the top five list of people to read your first draft of your frist chapter in your story. You were the whole reason I started my story, remember we were at lunch in the summer and someone asked me if you were my mom. So I came up with the whole idea that this girl goes to a new school and realizes her biological mom is her new teacher. I promise I will finish it one day. I haven't stopped writing since I was in your class. It's the only thing that gets me through a rough time. You taught me how to deal with my feelings and emotions and without that I don't know what kind of person I would be today. And for that, I thank you. You did everything you set out to do. You touched so many lives in so many ways. You changed peoples lives simply because they met you and saw the kind of person you were and the kindred spirit you have. Everyone longs for what you possess. You are a beautiful person inside and out. You're the last person on Earth that deserves to be sitting where you're sitting. I don't know what I'm going to do when I come back to that school after I graduate and you're not one of the teachers I get to see again. I don't think I'll handle that too well, so you better hurry up and get better soon!!! Because we all miss you. It hasn't been and never will be the same without you. You're Famous!!! Smile and cheer up, we're all rooting for you. You're in my thoughts and prayers everyday, and I know you hear it all the time, but you are. I'll never forget you. You helped mold who I am today. Thank you so much for reaching out your hand and touching the world. You truely are God sent. Get some rest, we hope to see you soon. I love you so much. P.s. your hospital room is stunning. What a blessing to see all that support. Its comforting to know that people are there when we all can't be. Hang in there, hold your head up high, I know you're strong. Thanks again,
Always and Forever,
Jennah Custer
Hey Mrs.Gaddy!!!!!! Its so great that you are improving!!! I'm so glad that you got all the cards and letters and posters! I hope that all of them are making you feel better!! Well, get better soon! I'm still praying for you!
Miss you,
Lauren Roy
Hey Mrs.Gaddy!!!! I hope you are feeling better!! I bet you are by now!!! I was so happy to see you laugh and be doing so well when I saw you. I know you will get better with all of the posters and cards that were in your room. Your family is sooo nice and friendly just like you. I hope you get to come back soon but right now just focus on getting better we will be fine. I love you sooo much
Love you lots,
Abby Steelman
Hello Sandy,
You don't know me but a friend of yours posted on a forum I am on and I wanted to come by and tell you I am thinking about you and praying for you.
All the comments left by your students and others show what a wonderful and special woman you are.
God Bless.
Rebecca White
Blessings to you Sandy!
I'm indirectly connected to you by a woman named Paige, who works with your sister. She put out an inspiring email on one of our networking sites and I felt compelled to drop you a note.
It is obvious you have a lot of love and support around you from family and friends. But more importantly, you have the comfort, love and support of God who will give you strength and peace of mind in times of trouble and distress. It is in the arms of our Saviour where we can let it all out--the anger, the hurt, the pain, the sadness. Continue to rest in His arms and He will renew your strength.
Peace & Blessings to you!

This is Mike Hagen's little sister, Karen...just wanted to let Sandy know that I am the coach of the RHS Cheerleaders now and since she and Kristi are some our "alum" I shared her story with them, and we are keeping your entire family in our hearts, minds, and prayers!
Hi Sandy:
Wow, what amazing comments from all your friends and students. You must feel so blessed. You might not remember me, but I'm Krist's friend from California. I met you once when you came to Lake Shastina to visit her. It was great to get to know you a little bit and I feel like I know you even better through Kristi. I bug her every now and then to see how you are doing. This blog is a great idea and a good way to lift your spirits. There are so many people who are praying for you and want to know your progress. You and your family are in my prayers and thoughts constantly. I pray God continues to give you the strength and courage to fight. Get well!

Mrs. Gaddy-
This is Carissa Gaddie...I have been getting updates on you from the Goforths and everything. I really hope you start feeling better. It's definitely really hard to hear about it. You are most definitely my favorite teacher and not just teacher but person. you have helped everyone so much. I miss you so much. I miss being in your class..and no matter how bad you were feeling you always made everyone else feel amazing!!! You are such an amazing person to everyone. I just wanted to tell you that.I love you and miss you!!!<3
Mrs Gaddy,
Im not sue if you will see this soon or not. I hope you do. I just want to let you know that I have missed you soo soo much! You are my favorite teacher i have had. And knowing that you were there conmferting my grandmother during her chemo and talking to her about me and Derrick to keep her smiling, it breaks my heart. You were the one teacher to push me as far as i can go. You always were a fan of my poetry, and now Im having a poem published! I hope the book comes out soon, I'd love for you to be able to read it! A lot has happened but I am never going to forget who you are and your impact on me! Please stay strong! You have so many people here for you who love you!
Brittany Winburn
Sandi,
Just wanted to write to let you know you're in our prayers every day. I knew when you told me you were going to teach, all those years ago, that you would be those one in a million teachers who give their heart and soul to their students. From all the posts here I can see that's the case. I really enjoyed catching up with you at the reunion and meant it when I said I consider you a true friend. Even though we didn't stay in touch very long after RHS some of the things you said back then have stuck with me. Believe in yourself and fight for what you want and you'll get it. Maybe it was all those photo chemicals we were around :) but I've never forgotten. Keep fighting the good fight Sandi, we're all behind you...your not alone.
Michael Hagen
Kristi - just wanted you to know that we are all thinking of your sister and all your family - you are all in our prayers!
Love you!
Darlene Gates
Sandy,
Our prayers are with you. Hang in there. I promised you I would get on your web site somehow--miracles do happen!!! Everyone says hi and that they love you. I love you always.
Love Your Cousin,
Debbie
p.s. Do I get a picture of your green toes??? lol hahahha
I lost a favourite teacher to cancer when I was little. I am now 41.
I wish I could have had the ability to tell my teacher then what a powerful inspiration she was to me, as your students can here.
Do get better soon. It is obvious that you are loved.
Tina Brooks
Mrs. Gaddy,
Unlike everyone else's surprise to the comments above, I expected them to be there because there are so many people who are praying for you and thinking about you. I can remember going to see you in the hospital a couple years ago, when we first found out. I was the first student in the school to know, and I wasn't allowed to tell until we had that assembly. It was hard for me just knowing that I was the only one that knew, and that I only had my parents to cry with. I probably don't understand much of anything that you are going through, but I do know how much of a blessing you are to so many. I learned this past month how much influence one person can have on the people around them, and I have witnessed the joy that you have brought to students and teachers alike. I know by experience, and I am proud to say that I have had the blessing of knowing you in both school and outside of it. Your courage in the face of adversity is a true example to all of us, and I may not have been able to get through anything without the role model that you are to look up to. My family and I are praying diligently for you and yours.

I only meant you a couple of times when my mom and you were having treatment at the same time. This is Melissa Ray, Derrick and Brittany Winburn's mom I want you to know how much you mean to my two teens they think and pray for you daily. My prayers are with you and your family, I know how hard thing's are with fighting this diease but with God you can do anything, no matter the outcome I know you are close with God and that you are in his loving arms daily. He will be with your family and friends and all the kids and parents you have touched. You are an amazing person that God touched with the gift to teach others and that is something so very special. We all love you and miss terribly. And thank you for touching my kids hearts with your love and caring and patiece and understanding. You have affected them for the rest of their lives for the better.

Hello Sandi & Family:
I just wanted to drop a little note to let you know I am praying very deeply for you. I think about you everday. Sandi please do not give up. We all need you. You have touched so many lives, including mine and my families. I pray God will give you the strength to have the surgery you need. I pray for you to walk out of that hospital one of these days. I pray for the strength of your family. Sandi I pray that you and I can coach another Cheerleading squad together again at church. How fun was that?! Thank you for getting me involved. Thank you for allowing our families to meet. Who would have thought the first time we all went somewhere together we would have to wait for a couple of hours before we could eat...and then for the food to be cold!?! I can't wait to do that again.
Like I said in a card I sent you, God put you and I in the same place at the same time for a reason. Little did I know at the time you would become such a wonderful, faithful friend. You are such a role model. Thank you for that. Keep your head up! I love you with all of my heart.
Mike-
Hang in there. Please know that we are praying for you too. Please know if you need anything...anything please do not hesitate to call me. I am available ANY time. Please let Lauren & Logan know they are in my thoughts and prays.
Kristi & Family-
Thank you for the blog update you guys are doing a wonderful job. Please know you too are in our prayers. God Bless You!!
