I worked with Sandra for many years at the Grace Hospital, both on the wards and in Emergency. Always a quiet, kind, dignified lady and hard working co-worker. Her patients were always comforted by her knowledge and compassion. In aging she remained very grateful when we had our outings to movies or coffee. Her family was so important to her and we all knew about your times together. Your loss is great. May the love and support of her friends bring you comfort. - Posted by: Cheryl Telford (co worker) on: Jul 23, 2014
