From Pratt Whitney,
Sandi and I had our physicals the same day, and started on the same day, in the same department 8524, May 19, 1980. She was Z380807, I was Z380808. Whenever one of us moved, the other seemed to follow right behind. 40 years later we were still working side by side. We had hoped to Retire together, but I beat her to that by two years. She outworked me. Rumour has it. If she had known I was taking the Package, she would have taken it also. So it almost happened. Rest in Peace Dear Friend. You’ve Earned Your Wings. My Condolences to her Family and Friends.
MY Cousin! Loved & missed! Great times growing up next door.Great times at camp. Still can’t believe you & my sis are not with us, but know you are together!! Continued prayers to Sandi’s family, My cousins! Love you.
Our condolences to all of the family. Sandra was such a caring and loving lady. I’m glad i got to know her when gathering for family events. She will be sadly missed by all. Keep my mom company up there.
When I worked in Business unit 8100 I would pass by Sandra’s desk everyday… she was so pleasant to speak with. We did have some good talks at 7am ……Sandra will be missed…
