Sandra David- What a beautiful lady! Inside and out she brought joy and light into a room!
Between the southern charm and her spitfire spirit, she could comfort and give sound advice to anyone.
I feel so blessed to have had her in my life.
I have a book full of her recipes! And she always brought me a little something that she worked so hard on to taste! What a lady. They just don’t make them like that anymore.
When her arm was healing from the previous chemo, she let me put her IVs in her feet- and she had tiny feet! She would always wear cute festive socks and pretty shoes when I worked on her. It always made me smile!
I think she enjoyed making people smile.
She saw someone in need and knew just how to make a difference. Whether it was prayer, a good lighthearted joke, or a car, she (and Barry too) always seemed to go out of their way to help others. She oozed love! The world misses her, I miss her, and I know the family misses her so dearly.
I think about her so often, and sometimes I smile, or cry, or think of something she said and I just laugh out loud! I hope someday I can hug her and tell her everything about my day again & hear her laugh.
I am currently on bedrest because I’ve seemed to have gone into labor too early….just a side note this baby girl is due on Sandra’s birthday….and well, it doesn’t surprise me that she wants to rush in and be a light in the world; just like Sandra was. I sure do wish she could have known Sandra and what a beautiful lady she was.
We will just have to tell baby Georgia about how lovely she was!
She is so very loved, and admired for the wonderful strong woman she was. Tough as an old boot, and gentle as the warm sunshine on your face.
All my love to the family,
Chelsea Messenger
Sandy was Southern at heart. She taught me how to make Chow Chow (Cha Cha), and it was so delicious I ate both jars in one week. Making it brought back memories of my Southern roots. She was such a sweet and beautiful soul, and I’m grateful for the time we shared. --Danel
Mom always made us laugh no matter what situation we were in. If we had to move, clean house or whatever it was, there was always laughter. We always had fun. She made every one around her laugh. Her laugh was contagious.
Sandra warmed the room with her smile, her laugh and her witty southern charm. She was overflowing with words of wisdom anytime I had a question about life. We giggled together, cried together and prayed together, and she had a way of making anyone around feel better; even when she was struggling with her own health.
She had the strength of an army and the grace and gentility of a rose. Beautiful inside and out!
She and her husband, Barry, are some of the most generous and loving people I’ve ever met. What a blessing it was to have Sandra in our lives!
She wore funny T-shirts and festive socks (specifically when she planned on getting her IV in her foot!)! That always made me smile! I think she enjoyed making people smile.
We called each other sisters- Sisters of the Lord, and I loved her like a sister.
When we found out our baby girl was due on Sandra’s birthday, we had a little party dance together! God has a way of showing us how much he loves us…even with little signs.
I thank God for giving us Sandra, and for His grace upon her through the last days she was here. Oh my heart.
I know she is enjoying all the good things now; No more pain; Heavenly blessings falling upon her.
She is missed immensely. I think about her so much. I don’t think the loss ever gets easier- I think it keeps coming in waves, and maybe that’s the way God intended it to be.
I hope we all are filled with love and happy memories every time we think of Sandra. What a beautiful impact on the world she made. I hope I can be just as wonderful a woman as she was to everyone around her. Love, Chelsea Messenger
