Freddy, sorry to read of the passing of Sandra. I did not know her as well as I did you, Pat and I remember her and you in our thoughts at this time. I enjoyed playing sports with you in school, you were one of our best when we played for Coach ‘Roy Yates”. Take care of yourself.

Fred and family so sorry to hear about sandra.
Fred and family- I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Sandy. She was such a genuinely wonderful person that will be missed by many. When I lived in Cresswind Sandy was a good friend to me. Sending you a huge hug of comfort. Barb
Sending prayers to all of you. I have so many memories of our time together! I’m so glad I got to spend time with Sandy and Fred when they were in Charleston. We got to watch Tonya, Amy, and Andy grow up alongside our kids. She was a great Mom! She will now be your guardian angel.
Our family is saddened to hear of Sandi’s passing. She and Freddie are 2 of the kindest, most genuine people we’ve ever enjoyed knowing. Her big, warm smile will be remembered and missed. We love you Sharpes
