I want Sandy’s family to know how sorry I am for your loss. As a cousin from Iowa, I am also feeling a loss. I was her flower girl in her story book wedding. Story book according to a six year old. We traveled by bus for what it seemed like days from Iowa to New Jersey. Then we were at the wedding, I don’t know how long we were there before, but I had the most beautiful dress, tight bodice and lots and lots of flowing material all the way to the floor. I am so lucky to have that special memory to last my lifetime and I am so thankful that I was able to share your loved one in my life. When she came back with Aunt Sally and when she came back other times, we always were able to talk and have fun and lots of memories. I am so grateful to have known her and loved her. I will miss her, as you will. God has her in his arms, without pain.
Love,
Barb Lynchard
Daughter of Ruby Bernice Thomas Hamilton Ballou, Aunt Sally’s sister-Sandy’s Aunt
