Sandra Kay (Kring) Grindle, 71, of Arapahoe, died May 17, 2010 at the

Funeral services were held at 11:00 a.m. on May 22, 2010 in Alamosa, CO at the

at the Uraca Cemetery on Mount Blanca.

Sandra was born Oct. 8, 1938 in Alamosa, Colo., first daughter to Ben and Cora 
Kring. She was raised in the San Luis Valley and spent much of her time 
helping her father shear sheep and wonk in the lettuce fields.

She married Dolphus R. Grindle on Nov. 26, 1955. They lived in the alley for a 
time then moved to Georgia and moved back to the valley to start their family. 
To this union were born Randall William, Anthony Alan and D. Albert Grindle.

After being widowed in 1963, Sandra studied for her GED and graduated Aug. 31,

teaching in Walsenberg and continued studying to receive her master’s degree 
in elementary and special education. She ended her education career in Center, 
Colo.

Following her retirement she moved to Syracuse to be closer to her 
grandchildren. She loved and adored them all and loved caring for all of them. 
She later moved to Nebraska City, where she opened a daycare where she would 
care for 36 children on a daily basis. She then mobbed to Yutan to care for 
two of her grand daughters and staying close to her family moved to Oxford in 
1991.

In 1993 she bought her home in Arapahoe and lived there until February 2010
