Sandy Raymond West Sr.

Sandy was reunited with his beloved wife Diane on Easter Sunday morning at his home on Greene Cove after a brief illness.  He was the son of John Harwood and Rose West and a brother to David, Larry, Jerry, Barbara, Margaret, Nancy, Brenda, and Savella.

Sandy was a true family man.  He treated most everyone like family no matter how long he'd known them.  He never met a stranger and went by Dad, Paw, or Old man.  Sandy loved his children; Mary, Sandy Marie, Sandy Raymond Jr, Pamela, John, Kevin, Melinda, Cynthia, Autumn Angel, and the late Tonya Bruce.  He also loved and cherished his many grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Each and every one had a special place in his heart.

Sandy  was a dedicated provider.  He was a pipe and Boiler Insulator for many years and he was great at his job.  He took pride in being the best he could be.  He would say "If you are a ditch digger, then always make sure you are the best ditch digger there is."  His son Raymond followed in his footsteps to become a professional Pipe and Boiler Insulator.  His son John is a professional Block, Brick, and Rock Mason, and his son Kevin is an Electronic Engineer.  All three sons mastered their trade and are considered some of the best at what they do.

Sandy loved to hunt and fish, and he loved his little dogs.  He had an infectious smile and laugh.  He always had a story or tall tale, and had a twinkle in his eyes when he was up to something.  For those that knew and loved him, he will be truly missed.  The family will hold a private service at a later date.
