Sandra Jean
Leatherman
Sandra Jean Leatherman of Santa Paula left us May 21, 2003, at the age of
62, to join the Lord in heaven. Sandy was surrounded by her loved ones as
she passed peacefully in her sleep.
Sandy touched the lives of many. She dedicated her life to giving to
others with unconditional love, support and nurturing to her friends, her
students and family. This is what made her the best kind of teacher, the
closest friend and the greatest daughter, sister, mother, grandmother and
wife. She loved teaching kindergarten, singing in the choir and laughing
with her friends and family. She truly will be missed by all of those who
were blessed to know her.
Sandy is survived by her loving husband of 43 years, Jim.; daughter,Brenda, and her husband, Erick Martin;
sons, Jeff Leatherman and Greg Leatherman
and his wife, Laiena, and youngest son, D. J. Leatherman; grandchildren,
Hunter, Luke, Kim and Jason; great-granddaughter, Chloe; parents, Vern and
Bea Engebretson; brother, Richard and his wife, Valerie; sister, Pam
and her husband, Dan Ramirez; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and
nephews.
A memorial service will be held at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, May 24, at the
Rancho Santa Paula recreation room, 500 W. Santa Maria St., Santa Paula.
