The staff at the Creamery Crossing have broken hearts with the death of Sandra. She was a great person and waited so patiently for her phone to ring to bring her good news. That never happened and we are all heart broken that she was not able to receive a transplant in time. We give you strength during these very difficult days for you. You were always special customers. We will never forget that bright green jacket. She will be missed by all those that knew her.
