Passed away suddenly on November 22, 2023 at the age of 77 years. She was the cherished wife of Claus for 45 years. Loving mother of Sharon (Randy), Tammy (Colin), and Tracy. Dear grandma of Gina, David, Bradly, Ashley, Ryan, Coral, and Jessica; and great-grandma of Lauchlan, Emma, Milly, Landon, Nevaeh, Myla, Evelyn, and baby-to-come. Sister-in-law of Lori (Bryan), and Wes (Allison). Aunt to Chantal (Marcel) and Teila (Larry), great aunt to Brianna, Emily, Carter and Caleb.

Sandra found joy in the simple pleasures of life. Her passion for Bingo brought a smile to her face, and her love for travel allowed her to explore the beauty of the world. She relished the peaceful moments spent fishing on the boat. Sandra had a fondness for old detective shows and western movies.
Among her many loves, she shared a special bond with her loyal companion, Bailey. Sandra's little dog will undoubtedly miss her warmth and presence.
