There will be no formal services for Sandy. Cruz Family Funeral Home and Cremation Service of Osceola has been entrusted with her care. 

Sandy began her career caring for others at a local nursing home, where her compassion touched numerous lives. Later, she took a position at Nyloncraft in Mishawaka, where she continued on until her retirement. 

In her younger years, Sandy enjoyed bowling, camping under the stars, and going to family cookouts where laughter and love filled the air. She enjoyed listening to classic country music and she could often be found watching her favorite TV show, Gunsmoke. Sandy also enjoyed playing a good game of cards with friends or family.

Above all, Sandy’s heart belonged to her family. She adored her grandchildren and treasured every moment spent with them. Some of her happiest memories were made during trips to Alabama, a place that held special significance as the home of her parents.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to Heart-to- Heart Hospice, 620 Edison Road Suite 122, Mishawaka, IN 46545. To light a virtual candle, share a story of Sandy’s life, or leave a message of comfort for her family, please follow the links provided on the Guestbook tab above.
