Ed Lipskey Ed - So sorry to hear the news of Sandy's passing, but so glad you could all be together to say goodbye. In our days at McEachren, I remember how fondly you'd talk about Sandy and how even in the most challenging of times, you'd have a twinkle in your eye and such a sincere kindness about you. How lucky you were to have each other, and to have built such a great family and life together, with so many happy memories. Sandy couldn't have asked for more in a life partner. Thinking of you and sending hugs and sympathies.

~ Jen and Dan Robertson

Take care my friend.
