Dear Friends, I wanted to let you know that Sandy transitioned to her heavenly state last night around 10 PM.  The girls and I were with her praying as she died peacefully.  Please know how much we appreciate all of you.  Below is the obituary with a picture of how we remember her - in the garden with a bright smile:

Sandra Kidd Poehling, age 77, was surrounded by her family when she passed peacefully on May 31, 2020, Pentecostal Sunday, at her home from metastatic breast cancer.
