She is predeceased by her brother Elmer Yuscyk and her sister Beverly Feathers. Sandra enjoyed spending time with her family, sharing her love of cooking and baking, especially the dozens and dozens of Christmas cookies she was so very proud of. Sandra was an avid reader, enjoyed crossword puzzles, coin collecting, gardening, needlework and playing cards, particularly pinochle. Sandra also enjoyed listening to 50's and 60's music and at one time was exceptional at dancing the jitterbug. She was also very proud of the fact that she was from the coal regions of PA and often referred to herself as "a coalcracker". She kept everyone in her circle up to date on current events and had participated in various taxpayer groups. Flowers greatfully accepted, as well as contributions to: yorklibraries.org.
