In Loving Memory of Sandra Hill

With heavy hearts we bid farewell to Sandra Hill, a remarkable woman who brought class,
sophistication, and laughter to our lives. Sandra, born on December 30, 1944, in Wichita,
Kansas, was a quick-witted and charming woman who left an indelible mark on all who had the
pleasure of knowing her.

Sandra was the beloved daughter of Jack and Ina Crandall, who bestowed upon her the gifts of
love, a sharp sense of humor, and intelligence. On April 21, 1963, she embarked on journey of
love and companionship when she married Gary Hill. Together, they nurtured a beautiful family
and raised two sons, Steven and Bradley Hill. Steven arrived in 1966, followed by Bradley in
1972.

Throughout her career, Sandra thrived in the realm of retail management, spreading her charm
across Kansas, Texas, and Florida. However, it was at the Morrill Public Library in Hiawatha
where she discovered true joy. Working with children who eagerly explored the world of
literature brought a sparkle to her eyes and warmth to her heart. Sandra embraced her role as a
librarian, sharing her love for books and nurturing the imagination of countless young minds.
Sandra's magnetic personality and radiant smile endeared her to many, and her passing leaves
a void in the lives of those who loved her. She is survived by her sister, Lana Reigle, and her
husband James, as well as her brother Tom Crandall and his wife Lois. Sandra's love extended
to her numerous nieces and nephews, who will forever treasure the laughter and joy she
brought to their lives. Her grandchildren, Alex Hill, Shelby Hilll, and Courtney held a special
place in her heart. She also embraced Clara Bicker as a beloved granddaughter, a bond formed
by mutual choice.

While we grieve the loss of Sandra, we find solace in the knowledge that she has been reunited
with her beloved husband, Gary, who passed away in 1994, and her dear son, Bradley, who left
us in 2004. Their memories will forever remain etched in our hearts, a testament to the profound
love and happiness that they shared as a family.

In celebrating Sandra's life, let us remember her infectious laughter, her sharp wit, and her zest
for life. She leaves behind a legacy of love, humor, and sophistication that will continue to
inspire us. As we bid farewell to this extraordinary woman, may we cherish the memories we
shared with her and find comfort in the thought that Sandra's spirit will forever live on through
our memories of her.

A reception in Sandy's memory will be held at the meeting room of the Morrill Free Public Library,                                                                            Hiawatha,  from 1 until 3 p.m. Saturday, July 8, 2023.

Memorial contributions are suggested to the Morrill  Free Public Library which may be sent in                                                                             care of the funeral home, 124 S 7th St., Hiawatha 66434, who is assisting the family.

Rest in peace, dear Sandra. You have left a mark on our lives, and your light will continue to
shine brightly in our hearts.
