"My marriage suffered at the beginning but we weather the storm and my Husband, Tommy and I have now been married for 37 years. He is a professional musician and owns a recording studio so as you can imagine, both of our schedules are very different. Money has always been tight because we are both self-employed so that too can add stress. But I would not change a thing. Nothing worth having is easy and fighting to keep it whether is a family or a business it’s worth it if you can weather the storm."

By her 20s, Sandra owned her own cafe, and 10 years later, she also became an owner of a gift shop. She was also involved in church work and shared her experience with others, teaching kids the art of telling stories through drama. She was known as the 'drama mama'.
