I am so saddened by your incredibly huge loss. Sandra always made my face sore with her wit and humor. ONE of my favorite memories was Sandra's 18TH birthday! Sweet Rodney bought us tickets for Guns & Roses. Well Sandra was having a few cocktails...which was fine....But I tried to talk her out of wearing high heel shoes... Crazy, fun, BUSY night...Did make it home with ONE shoe... So smart....She amazed me how she could whip through a book in a night...She always had an ear for everyone who needed it...and a heart WAY too big for her chest when it came to animals and family.My prayers for Greg,Taryn,Rodney,Dennis& Shelley. - Posted by: Kathy Lysohirka (friend) on: Mar 12, 2022

I had the honour of working and serving with Sandra at 17 Wing TIS when I was military and she was a civilian during 2008 - 2012. We worked together on a few projects...she was very professional in every respect. She will be sadly missed, but always in my heart as a friend. Rest In Peace my friend Respectfully, Wayne Bennink, MTA, CD2 CF Ret'd, CF Veteran - Posted by: Wayne Bennink (A very old colleague) on: Mar 07, 2022

Our deepest condolences, Greg, Taryn, and Riley What an incredible woman my friend Sandra was. I will miss her so much there simply aren't words to describe it. There will forever be a hole in our lives without her. I will miss her one liners for sure, but more than that, I will miss the way she always listened and never judged, and offered the best advise, and THEN made me laugh my ass off! Wear your tiara proud my friend. I love you. Love Marsha and Albie. - Posted by: Lisa Branconnier (Bestie) on: Mar 06, 2022

We are so sorry Greg, Taryn and Riley also of course the fur babies. Sandra was one of a kind and it was an honour to co-parent with her when Riley was younger. Then share our beautiful grand babies later in life. I will miss our 4:00 am dance parties on girls weekend and your booming laughter. Rest In Peace and cheers friend. - Posted by: Gisele (Friend) on: Mar 05, 2022

I remember when I first met Sandra. Her boisterous personality. On girls weekend I became her roomie. In typical Sandra style she welcomed me with open arms. I will always treasure if conversations, our laughter, our tears and our shenanigans we would get into when everyone was sleeping. Thank you Roomie for the love and memories. Ours was truly a special friendship. I will miss you. - Posted by: Patty Sansregret (Roomie) on: Mar 05, 2022
