Prior to the death of her son Patrick at the age of 42, Sandra was sure she had a special angel on her shoulder, because of her wonderful family. Sandra always said she got to work in her favorite pastimes: music, travel and books. She started out working in the travel industry, but when she and Bill started a family, she wanted to spend more time with her family at home. So, for 20 years Sandra gave piano lessons and tennis lessons to the area children. She later re-entered the travel business which afforded her the chance to once again travel all over the world. And upon her retirement, Sandra worked part-time for the Carver County Library System.
For the past 20 years Sandra has spent the winter months on South Padre Island, Texas enjoying the warmth, the ocean and many friends.
