Oh No!

I never even knew she was sick (guess I don't follow the right threads).

I'm so sorry to hear that. I know that she was a really great person.

I pray that her family can find peace.

Sorry to hear this. I was in Akron Ohio a couple years back and wanted to reach out to her but never did. Now I wish I would have.

We lose too many good people to cancer before their time.

Wow, I did not know that she was battling cancer! I was wondering why I was not seeing her post here much in the last year or so!

My condolences to her family!

I used to enjoy seeing the pictures of "the prettiest one" and felt her enjoyment that she had for the Cutlass. I was wondering why the posts and pictures stopped. She will be missed....

This is just too sad... She was so sweet and friendly - I knew she did not post as much, but I have not been around much myself.
RIP my friend - you will be greatly missed.

Yes, she had Teepo, or TPO for "The Prettiest One".
She is the second good friend I lost to cancer in two years - not good. I wish there was a cure...

I only knew Sandy through ClassicOldsmobile and then later through Facebook. She was one of the few still out there that made classic cars fun. Loving the car for the car not comparing or judging anyone else. She showed her love of family and Teepo online on her sleeve. Her presence here online and with her family and friends will surely be missed. RIP Sandy.

I remember when she was showing her car Teepo and would win a trophy every week. She jumped right in the middle of this male dominated site and didn't look back.

RIP Sandy.

I am always saddened by this kind of news. I haven't been here that long, but I remember reading some of her posts. I would always be encouraged to see a woman posting here with such vigor. Prayers for her family!

The world is a lesser place without Sandy. She certainly was an ambassador for the old car hobby, and Oldsmobiles in particular.

I had wondered where Sandi was. I did not know this.

She and I never met face to face but I feel like I've been gut-punched. She and Teepo were a really bright spot in our online Oldsmobile world.

She has ridden her Rocket into eternity...

Like many of you, I had never met Sandy personally, but it was always fun and refreshing to read her posts. You could feel her energy and excitement.

I hope that Teepo remains in her family and will be the source of many fond memories.

RIP

So sorry to hear about Sandi. Her personality came through in her posts and you could tell she had a big heart. Her all too soon passing will leave a big hole in the C.O. forum. My sincere condolences to her family and her many friends. R.I.P. Sandi.

Very sad news. My condolences to her family and friends.

I had the opportunity to meet her in person a few years ago while on a trip to Ohio. She showed me a few local cruise nights and an Oldsmobile show. I had a great time with her.

She was so proud of Teepo and it showed in her car.

Sandy is smiling down at this appropriate little tribute to her on her favorite site! She was the sunshine of the Good Morning thread. May she rest in peace.
