In the late 60's they moved to a small hobby farm in Neosho, where they raised their five children tended their animals and trained dogs.  Due to a job change in 1984 they moved to Token Creek.  In 1996 they built their retirement home in the Columbus countryside on 39 acres.  More than anything Sandra loved spending time with her children and attending her grandchildren’s activities. She enjoyed taking walks with her dogs, and feeding/watching wild birds in the backyard.  She is survived by her children, Dawn (David) Rabbach, Heather (Don) Heemstra, Robyn (Jeff) Linder, Trinette (Mike) Zimmerman, and Kurt (Stephanie) Kazmarek; 16 grandchildren; seven great grandchildren, and one on the way; many relatives; and friends.  Sandra was preceded in death by her parents; husband; and sister, Pam.  Private burial will be held in Roselawn Memorial Park.  A celebration of her life will be held at a later date.  Memorials may be made to Dodge County Humane Society.  A special thank you to the staff of Randolph Health Services for their love and care of mom.  Please share your memories of Sandra by posting on her Tribute Wall.
