Sandy (Allen) Hedum, the daughter of Robert and Helen (Moore) Allen, was born October 15, 1952, in Onawa, Iowa. She grew up in the Onawa area. On August 30, 1968, Sandy was united in marriage to Roger Davis. To this union four children were born: Teresa, Penny, Chester and Arthur. The family made their home in the Mapleton and Ute, Iowa area where Sandy was a full-time mom, housewife and laborer on the farm. In 1986, they moved to Castana, Iowa, where she opened a reupholstering business. After her children grew up, Sandy began working as a flagger for road construction which evolved into driving dump trucks for construction companies.
A few years after her first husband passed away, Sandy met and fell in love with, Terrence “Terry” Hedum. Sandy and Terry were united in marriage on February 4, 2011, in LeMars, Iowa. The couple resided in rural Akron, Iowa, where she continued to drive truck until she became too ill to continue working.
