Sandy married Roy Thompson in 1988 and over the following 34 years, they made homes in Billings, MT, Florence, MT, and Antioch, CA.

Granddaughter Jennifer Rumsey was a special joy in Sandy's life as she was always on the spot for helping around the house or simply joining grandma for a cup of coffee and chat.

Sandy was preceded in death by her parents, her twin sister Margie Buchanan, and daughters Christie Rumsey and Lorie Ralston.

Sandy loved to talk family and share stories and coincidences with me. We would laugh and get somber over life events and cared for each other. Sandy had a heart of gold and and caring spirit that made me love her starting the first time I met her.
