In retirement, the couple moved to Harpers Ferry, Iowa. Sandy was an avid gardener and bird watcher, enjoying her morning cup of coffee while looking for hummingbirds. During the day she occupied her time with crocheting, knitting, quilting and volunteering at church. Many evenings you could find Sandy enjoying a game of cards while entertaining family and friends. In their later years, the couple moved to Waterloo, Iowa to be closer to family. Sandy was a dedicated wife, mother, grandmother and friend, leaving behind tokens of love and devotion for all of those lucky enough to know her.
