Sandra's Story
Attended Benson HS in Omaha my Sophomore year. Graduated from Turner High School in KCK in 66 as Wyandotte (graduating class of 64) would not let me finish my senior year after they found out that I had married during the summer.
Married 50 years . Have 2 children a boy and a girl. We have 5 grandkids and 1 great grandson and 1 great granddaughter.
Moved to Prescott Valley Az. in Aug of 2009. What beautiful country. Our oldest grand kid moved with us.
My daughter and her family are just 2 miles away so we can see the grandkids often. She remarried this past December. So now that she is good with her life we can now move on to taking care of us.
Well on Feb 1, 2014 we are headed back to KCKS. Got a job offer that I could not refuse and found a house that I could buy so with everything falling into place the move is on.
Have always believed that things happen for a reason. While we love Arizona it is not home. Husband is starting to show signs of dementia and going back to what is more familiar for him is a positive move. Plus he wants to get to know the great grandson before he don't remember who he is.
Life is just normal for people of our age, some health issues but everything is ok.
Had a car acci...Expand for more
dent the sat after Thanksgiving. A pickup hit the car in front of him and both of them shot across the street at me and then I was shoved into another. While it was a bad accident, I was the only one with injuries which was a broken foot, and banged up knees. It could have been worse, I was so surprised that the lady the truck hit had no injuries and since the only thing left of her car was the seat she was in, I would say that God was working overtime that day.
The day before my accident my grandson and 3 friends were in Holbrook AZ coming back from CO when he was run off the road by a semi. The firefighter that was 2 cars back said they rolled 9 times. Now the strange part of all of this is that shortly before the accident, Payge said he looked up into the rearview mirror and saw a figure sitting between the two guys in the back seat. Plus one of the guys said he felt someone next to him. The firefighter said that he was watching the car while he was trying to get pulled over safely and said that 5 people not 4 got out of the car.
Then the next day I have an accident. My daughter was totally freaked when I called her to tell her I was in a wreck. She said that should confirm that there is a higher being.
