Two Years
It hardly seems possible that Sandi has been gone for two whole years. It seems like just yesterday when I was able to talk to her on the phone and share what was going on in our lives! That said each day sometimes seems like it is two years long because I miss her so much! Overall I think she would be very proud of her kids and Mike and how well they have adjusted to life without her. Not that it has been easy but she wanted them to be able to live happy lives. Feel free to post here your thoughts and memories, I plan to keep the blog open till blogger drags it out of my cold dead fingers so no worries about it going away any time soon.
We love you and miss you so much Sandi.

I find myself checking this blog ocassionaly through out the years. Thinking that she is magicaly going to say something that would makes this easier. Just yesturday I was wishing she was here, because she always new what to say. She had a special way with words. I tried to stop by her class after school about once a week to fill her in on what was going on, and she always smiled and asked why I was really there. I miss her voice telling me that things are going to get better and that she was there if I needed to talk. I remember the day she told me she had cancer, I hadnt know her for very long. yet, I felt so blessed that she was able to share her story with me. I keep thinking that eventually I will slowly start to forget her, then it dawns on me that Im going to think about her everyday for the rest of my life. When Im teaching my class I will always remember the pointers that she gave me. She used to say that she had her desk behind her students, that way she able to see if anyone was cheating. She was a great woman and will never be forgotten, I like to think that we are all better just for knowing her. Thanks again Kristy, even though shes not here, this blog is nice to go back to to read from time to time. I wish you all the most blessing and joy in life.
Hugs and Prayers,
Austin
It has been two and half years and I still can't think about her to long without being brought to tears. Mrs. Gaddy was the bravest person I ever knew. She inspired everyone around her in so many ways, myself included.
My name is Chloe Massengale, and I was a student of Mrs. Gaddy's during the year she passed. Its hard to believe she's been gone two years. Some may think its odd to say that I miss her, since I didn't have her an entire year of school even. I was also sick a lot that year, so I wasn't at school those days, and didn't see her as much as the other students did. But I remember her teaching in class, and I remember her reading to us. I remember when we had to write stories for her class, and I still remember the day I asked her for advice on writing, since I had thought about being a writer. I also remember her telling us of a story she was writing, and how she was trying to write whenever she had the opportunity. I've always been curious what would of become of that story, if she could of finished it. She had so much life ahead of her, and even though I didn't know her aside from school, it still hurts me that she left the world when she had so much more life to live. I know she had a great family who loved her, and students who did as well. Even the students who didn't have her for very long or didn't have her at all, will be impacted by Mrs. Gaddy and her strength for fighting against cancer. She didn't let cancer bring her down, and Im glad she fought for as long as she did. She didn't give up, and a lot of students will remember that. We all love and miss you Mrs. Gaddy, and you will always be in our hearts to be remembered always.
