When Sandy was a young girl, her father’s work with the railroad brought their family to Las Vegas.

She soon turned her attention to being a devoted wife and later as a loving mother. Following Bruce’s graduation from Dental School in St. Louis, they moved to Las Vegas and finally, in 1975, to their home in Logandale.
Sandy was able to share her musical talents throughout her life. She blessed countless lives in all her circles of influence. She taught music at Moapa Valley High School, directed multiple choirs and assisted in many musical plays. She formed and directed multiple community and church choirs for many years.

While serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Argentina, she formed an area choir and was instrumental in teaching many people to play piano. Her enthusiasm was contagious and those she taught felt her love and acceptance. She was a faithful member of the church, serving with enthusiasm and love.
