You have the same name as my dear departed sister. Her name was Sandra and everyone but the family called her Sandy but all of our family called her Jane. She was a wonderful person and I miss her so much. She passed away in 1993 with cancer. I was just curious what you go by...Sandra, Sandy or Jane?

Thank you for the reply, and a personal statement. I find this encourages one to feel comfortable responding. Have received many happy, welcoming acknowledgements to my introduction. So sorry to learn of the passing of your sister, Jane. When my brother passed unexpectedly in 2003, I learned that the loss of a sibling leaves you with a different state of being and questioning than when losing a parent, friend, or other family member. All my friends and family call me Sandy. The name Jane, comes from a long line of 'Janes" on my father's side of family. Some of them went by Jane, some by Jenny. My mother decided on the Sandra part. I had to find a name the board accepted because of usage, so I'm Sandra Jane. Thanks for asking....Sandy
