Sandy took great pride in her family and the life she had made for herself. Working for Methode for 30 years, her dedication to her work provided the necessary means for her ranch. Raising cattle and horses mostly, she also enjoyed busying herself with other tasks around the farm. Her strongest passion was horseback riding with family and friends. From the age of 17 she went to the Fort Madison Tri-State Rodeo and loved it. Many games, campfire songs, and stories were something she loved to participate in.
Sandy left not only love and happy memories with every person she met, but joy and pride that will carry on with her family and friends.
