https://padlet.com/huyicheng2008/Bookmarks Sandy Tucker died in Oceanside, CA on November 1, 2021 surrounded by family and friends. She was a daughter, sister, aunt, friend, wife, and mother. Sandy was a great teacher and mentor to many of us in the field of Early Childhood Education. Please take some time to share a memory you have of Sandy and a picture if you have so we can remember her together in love. en-us 2021-11-12 18:57:11 UTC 2021-11-16 17:29:21 UTC hello@padlet.com huyicheng2008 https://padlet.com/huyicheng2008/Bookmarks/wish/1887340531 2021-11-12 19:09:14 UTC https://padlet.com/huyicheng2008/Bookmarks/wish/1887340531 cdproflaura https://padlet.com/huyicheng2008/Bookmarks/wish/1889464269 It was always so inspiring to hear Sandy talk about infants and toddlers. I am grateful that I was able to work with her and see her amazing work with young children.

I loved hearing about her family. It was such an enjoyable dinner, too.

My students will tell you how lucky they were to keep on learning from Sandy!
