    We are so sad to hear of Sandy’s passing. The Seidelman’s were a big part of making us feel welcome to Kearney and we enjoyed each other families while raising our kids.
    The last couple of years Sandy and I connected a few times and talked about having a reunion. Sandy was a “big sister” to me when I was a young Mom. A true friend!
    Ray, little Ray, Sarah, and Russell We are so sorry for your loss and will be praying for you all.
    May God wrap his arms tightly around you each at this time. Take care of each other. God is taking care of your Mom now! And, I will look her up when I get to Heaven! Hugs. Carol and Dave Osborn

    The Seidelman and Baker Family and all who knew Sandy will miss her deeply.
    As a school mate with Sandy she was always kind and cheerful. Later on at our reunions I always looked them to see what was new with them. Her hello smile at our meetings was so nice.
    My condolence to her families and all her friends and classmates.

She was a wonderful person to work for and a great, supportive boss. I know the family well and my thoughts and prayers go out to them. Her smile would always lighten-up my heart. She will be missed.
