It is with great sadness and unbelievable grief, we announce the passing of "Sandy".

She enjoyed her gardens and the lake where she lived. She had a great fashion sense and a passion for jewelry, always a beautiful woman with the heart of an Angel and the soul of a Warrior.
She loved being a grandmother "Mimi" and loved being "Mummie" to her fur babies Cosmo and Louie.
She had a bachelor's degree in Management and Marketing from UMass Dartmouth, and an associate degree in Small Business from Dean College in Franklin. Up until her illness she was an Inside Service Sales Representative at Waters Corp in Milford, MA.
