Chittlins, love at first bite. It was early on probably the second time Sandra and Brian came to our home. Sandra and I were talking about food for hours. Little did she know food has always been my favorite conversation, and still is to this day. Then she ask me if I ate chittlins and I said well hell, so then she asked me if I could cook them, and I said he'll yes. The next week was Thanksgiving and we had Chittlins and Hog Maws. After that our families were inseparable. Sandra and Brian use to baby sit Trai, Brandy and Destiny all the time. And we kept Chaz. I will miss my friend. From that day to this one we have shared everything about each other. Sandra is my sister by another mother, one of my best friends in this world. We have shared good times and bad as well. What a wonderful light she was on the dark world. My heart like all of yours is broken. Brian, Buck, Chaz and Muffin I love you all and I promise to keep you all in my prayers. She rest with her ancestors now, But trust And know we will see her again in time. Be Blessed🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
I grew up with Sandra, and she was a wonderful person. The thing that I will remember most about her, was that big beautiful smile that she always wore. She was also a very good basketball player.
