Sandy was born Nov. 5, 1942, in Waterloo, Iowa. She graduated from Mason City High School in 1960.

While in high school, she worked at the Hanford Inn in Mason City.

After retiring from Interstate, she attended and graduated from NIACC with an associate's degree. She most recently worked part time for Opportunity Village in Mason City.

She loved spending time with her granddaughters and her days off babysitting her granddaughter, Zoey. She enjoyed walking with her friends, rummage sales, sewing, crocheting, quilting and collecting angels.

Sandy would do anything at any time for her friends and family. She would always put the other person before herself.

Sandy served on the board of directors for the Gas and Electric Employee's Credit Union in Mason City for more than 30 years and was also a member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Manly.

She will be sadly missed by her husband, Monte Hawkins, of Manly; three children, Angie Sorenson and her husband, Jamie, of Hanlontown, D.J. Hawkins and his wife, Karey, of West Liberty, Iowa, and Tina Francis and her husband, Jeff, of Manly; six grandchildren, Kaitlyn and Kyra Sorenson, Kenni and Bayley Hawkins and Zoey and Jacey Francis; and Sandy's brother, Dennis Lechman, and his wife, Judy, of Salem, Ore. Sandy's large extended family and many dear friends also share in the family's loss.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Madge Lechman; and one infant brother.
