Born to Ralph and Rose Connolly on August 19, 1965 in Summerside, PEI. The family moved to the Roncesavalles area of Toronto where she developed a zest for life in her formative years. Sandra's desire for family found her next chapter in Oshawa as a young adult, raising two beautiful daughters whom she loved dearly. While a true Maritimer by birth she found the east coast spirit in Oshawa where she developed long last -ing friendships that became extended family. You can see the pride and joy in her eyes when she spoke of her "bubbins" (grandson Logan), her two daughters and her cuddly nutcase of a cat Oliver. Although Sandra battled gastric cancer, it never stop- ped her from enjoying the simple things in life with her friends and family. She is predeceased by her parents Ralph and Rose. Will be dearly missed by her sister Maureen (Sandy), long-time partner Gord, daughters Jaime (Derrick), Jessica (Tom), grandson Logan and her many friends. Friends were invited to say a final farewell to Sandra at Armstrong Funeral Home, 124 King Street East, Oshawa, on Thursday August 25th at 11 a.m. with visitation one hour prior to the service in the chapel. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated by the family.
