We knew and trusted Sandra for many years as she provided our healthcare. She was possibly the first Nurse Practitioner, at least in this area; and we always knew she had our health as her priority. Now we are saddened by her death. Please accept our sympathies for your loss.
I am forever grateful for the excellent care Sandra provided me as a Nurse Practitioner. She was the best of the best as well as a kind and caring individual.
Sandra had an outstanding ability to diagnose the cause of symptoms. She provided loving care to her patients.
I am so sorry to hear of Sandra’s passing. She mentored me early in my career as a Nurse Practitioner. I loved working with her and respected her.
Ms Sandy was a blessed person of knowing in Hidenwood for 4 years and she is very spiritual person I enjoyed her at Passover. After she loss her husband and daughter years ago, she was feeling sad and I was there to comfort her. I love you and miss you Sandy! I will never forget about our time we had together.
I am saddened to hear of Sandra’s passing. Both Sandra and Lou were so kind and supportive to my parents at Hidenwood. They were wonderful friends. I am very sorry for your loss.
