Wow....I can't believe it has been five years. So much has changed and it seems surreal sometimes that life is going on without her. Sometimes I stop and feel sad for the things Sandi has missed. Logan turning 16, Lauren finishing elementary school and getting ready for Junior High. My move to Omaha, going to college and later this month Graduating as a nurse. Her sister in law and mother in law getting married, so many things in our lives moving ahead and yet always with a shadow over them wishing that she had been here to share them with us. Not a single day goes by that she doesn't cross my mind. I can't help but think that she would be happy and proud of us for moving ahead with our lives and making our marks, doing the things that make us happy. I know that she would have been very proud of us and happy for us but I can't help but wonder how much better it would have been to have her here to celebrate with us!

We love you and miss you Sandi. We can only hope that we would have been making you proud and helping to carry on your legacy of helping others and showing the love of God to others.

I just found this blog. I am my heart broke
I knew Sandi when I went to school with her in Springfield. She was a great friend who always had an open ear. I still want to do something she showed me years ago. I want to make a quilt of all of my husbands old t-shirts like her mom made for her. God Bless!
