First my deepest sympathy to the family; I know Sandy was the center for you all. And to Sandy- I would like to thank you for making me feel so welcome in the Kidder family all those years ago (gee if only I’d known- haha); thank you for teaching me the art of burping a baby, the appreciation of a cup of coffee & good company, the enjoyment of watching wrestling & all the family gatherings. You brought a smile & love to many including me.

prayers to all the family during your loss
Well I can’t call to see how you are doing or when the next Dr. visit is. I guess I will wait to hear from you. Not sure what to do with all this extra time on my hands. Might just get in to trouble and it would still be your fault:) Can’t say I will miss you cause I already do. Can’t tell you to have fun cause you already are. When I think of you I will laugh, cry or kick something and then laugh and cry.I know you did all you did just for me, I know that and I thank you for it. You did help make me, me. (that is your fault too). Glad I got to be apart of the ride. Glad I got to share your last really happy memories. Love you Lisa
Memories r there forever Praying for the family through this tough time. My heart goes out to you all
