    Sandy was respected and admired by fellow respiratory therapists and students of respiratory science at Thiel College. I will always remember her for her vast knowledge in the field and her genuine care for patients and co-workers. I was always taught that your time of death is more important to God than your time of birth.

    This message has sustained my grieving for my loved ones who have passed away— I hope it helps the family and friends that Sandy had to leave behind.
