Obituary: Sandra Ann Marlatt

Just before noon on Thursday, June 11, 2015, Sandra “Sandie” Ann Marlatt died peacefully and surrounded by loved ones at Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett, Wash.  Sandie was 59 years old.

Sandie was born at Door County General Hospital in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin on Thursday, August 4, 1955. She was the first child of Leonette Agnes and Allen Charles Demmin.

Sandie always had a very caring heart and having 6 younger brothers and sisters she always cared and looked after them growing up. Her caring nature didn’t stop with her brothers and sisters. Sandie ran an in home daycare for 33 years. She cared for and helped to guide countless children over the years. Some of whom as they grew up, enlisted her help in caring for their children as well. She always went above and beyond anyone’s expectations and helped in anyway she could. She also worked for many years in the nursery at church where she was able to serve God through caring for those children.

She was an active member of the Garfield Elementary PTA while her children attended the school and was awarded the Golden Acorn Award.  Long after her children grew up she continued to volunteer her time at Garfield Elementary in the School Bell program which provided kids with shoes and coats who otherwise would have had to go without.

Sandie loved her family more than anything else and she reminded them of that daily in all the small details. She opened her heart and family to lose who were around her and was always happiest when she was with them.

Sandie was preceded in death by her mother, Leonette Demmin, her dad Allen Demmin, and sister in law Lori Demmin.
