Dearest Marsha…I know the feeling of your loss and it cannot be described. I hope you can take comfort in knowing that I care and am thinking of you. He was a wonderful man. May he rest now.
I am deeply saddened to hear about Sandy’s passing. He was a dedicated volunteer at the London Food Bank every Thursday morning: always willing to help out in whatever way he could and doing it with a smile, and nearly every day wearing his bright orange tee-shirt. He will be greatly missed and our thoughts are with his entire family.

Marsha June and myself send our condolences to you.
Marsha & family – So sorry to hear of your loss. Keep the memories close to your heart.
Marsha – our deepest condolences on the passing of Sandy. I don’t know anyone else who gave more of his time for volunteering and unpaid duties, whether at the legion, local 663 or manning the door at a hockey game. His influence and support has spanned a generation as my son Matt credits Sandy for facilitating his career as a steamfitter. I’m sure there are numerous others that have benefitted the same way. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Marsha and family. We are so saddened by this huge loss. Sandy is the first person to help anyone including Steve. He was an amazing generous gentleman. RIP Sandy
