Book of Memories for Sandra L. Pettigrew

Story shared: Like a Mother...

I never saw such a woman with a positive light towards the worst moments a person could have. She took care of her family with utmost care while still letting them find their own path. I used to be there with Sandy almost every day and she took me in as one of her own. Her food was always some of the best and she wouldn't let you leave the table without a "full" stomach. When you would get her on the phone, you had better set some time aside. She always willing to listen and talk for hours if you had the time no matter if the subject was light or heavy. I will look over her family as much as she looked over me throughout my life. She was like a mother to me and will be truly missed. I hope to pass her great spirit and philosophies that we discussed in the many conversations we have had to my own. Thank You for everything you have given to everybody. Love, Derek

Please accept my deepest sympathy to Sandy's family on their loss. My sister, Donna Kujawa, always spoke of Sandy with affection and admiration. I'm sure she will be missed as much as we miss her brother, Larry.

Sandy will be truly missed by all of us. She always brightened your day when she called and you could always see her smiling even over the phone as she left you in stitches and uncontrollable laughter. Her wit and humor, by far, were her strong points as well as her love and dedication to her family. Sandy lead a simple life on a farm in Clifton near Kankakee, tending to all of the animals that she loved so much, especially her horses and you could ask Sandy almost anything and she would always have an answer. In later years, her MS took a strong hold of her and her life, as she imagined it would be, soon disappeard from view and yet even with this affliction, she always found some way to cheer you up. I'll always remember our Christmas get-togethers and July 4th cookouts where we shared so many stories about friends and family and, most importantly, her call on New Year's. She was a great sister-in-law whom I will cherish in my heart forever and who was taken from us too soon. Love you always Sandy, Donna
