As we remember Sandra, her family offers a special message from Revelation 21:4: "And G-d shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new." May these words bring comfort and peace to all who mourn her passing.
