When they returned to Pittsburgh, Sandie, earned licenses in the Insurance and Real Estate industries but eventually chose to work side-by-side with Douglas at his medical practice in Monroeville. They both retired together in 2005. Words cannot express how sadly she will be missed by her family.

Sandie had a wonderful gift to make everyone in her life feel special and loved. She was a beautiful person inside and out who loved all of God’s creations. Her loving and giving spirit will continue to be an inspiration to her family and friends and she will be in their hearts forever.
