I didn’t know about Sandra’s death until I got to the radio station Sun. night and saw her obituary. I played a song in her memory. I loved her from way back when Gene Douglas was alive and we talked about that a lot. I thought I her so ofter and just knowing she was around. I thank God for her friendship over the years. She meant a lot to me. I am so sorry for your great loss, but she was a wonderful person and friend.
Sorry to hear about the loss of Mrs Sandra…Prayers for all the family…. I will miss her smile…
