I still see Sandra, sitting in the bleachers -
Supporting her teams and cheering them on to victory —
Offering just a little bit of advice to the officials along the way
I still see her - and hear her —
Giving her opinion on some particular subject
If you ever wanted to know her viewpoint, just ask
(And sometimes you didn't even have to ask .)
I still see her hauling her precious "Sonshine Singers"
To and from - spreading the word of God through music ~ ,
Bringing peace and joy into the lives of all those
Who ever heard them sing
I still see her as she laughed, cried, worked, played.
And just enjoyed life - living it to the fullest of her capability.
Thank you for always being there with her
Through her trails and tribulations.
Thank yon for giving her the courage to face each day.

CAMPING TIME!!!!
Women on Mission
The Women on Mission of The
First Baptist Church m?t April 25,
2000. with Doris Hammit opening the
meeting with prayer. .
Doris gave the program for the
morning entitled "Lost Loved Ones”.
A discussion was given about the
importance of witnessing to family
members. A true story was related of
a Pastor Bart Kingsley that had a*
brother and a brother-in-law that re-
main unsaved. "They need to know
that you care” and realize that you
want them to know the Lord because
you love them, not just to fulfill some
religious obligation."

Not once asking. "Why me. O'Lord?"
