Sandra A. Touchstone, age 79 of Jasper, passed away on Friday, October 2, 2026 at Ridgeview Health Services.
Sandy was born September 7, 1947 and received her ultimate healing on October 2, 2026.
It didn’t take long for anyone that met Sandy to quickly realize her love for the Lord. She boldly shared her testimony of recovery and redemption with anyone and everyone. God used her testimony to encourage others with their own struggles even in the days before her going home. The Good News of Jesus’ love and forgiveness was always on her lips.
