Sandy’s Story

Site created on February 20, 2021

Mom is at Abbott Northwestern Hospital.  She’s currently in ICU.  She had open heart surgery on 2/3 to repair a leaky valve and replace another one.  The surgery seemed to go well, but she never seemed to “wake up” afterward.  It was hard to keep her attention enough to keep her awake after the narcotics wore off.  Her condition has worsened since then.  She is now on a ventilator for a third time.  . 

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your prayers, support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

We can't thank you enough for the love and support you've shown Mom and our family since her passing. 

Thank you to everyone who attended her wake and/or funeral.  Thank you for people who provided meals, food, and beverages.  Thank you for everyone who sang, prayed, and/or helped with mass or the events surrounding her death.  Thank you for the visits, cards, and words of comfort.

Thank you for the cards, flowers, mass intentions, and donations.  Monetary donations are going to Le Sueur County 4H, St Henry Auxiliary, Le Center Food Shelf, and CaringBridge.

Here's a link to the funeral mass.  It was lovely.  It begins with a wonderful Eulogy by Peter Moe.  It's worth a listen.  Thank you Peter!  http://www.schoenbauerfuneralhome.com/obituaries.php 

Mom's Kindergarten Report card is in the photo gallery, if you are interested. 😉
