Sandy Krois Saunders

After graduation I attended RCC and there I met Denis Saunders. Denis joined the Navy and after boot camp we were married so I could join him as wife/dependent. We lived many places including North Chicago, Rhode Island, Daily City, CA, Charleston, SC, Maine, San Jose, Japan, and Hawaii. We became parents of Jennifer in 1979 in San Jose, and Stephanie in 1981 in Japan. There were many adventures for us and friendships that have remained to the present. Denis and I were both lacking in the knowledge of who we were as individuals and what a relationship should look like. Military life is difficult on families, and we were divorced in 1987 after many separations and reunions. I returned to Grants Pass in 1987 and proceeded to raise my girls as well as return to RCC to complete my studies. I graduated in 1990 with a AS in Management and a Certificate in Accounting. I worked at the College until August of 1992 when I took a full time position at Roe Motors, were I am still employed as their Warranty Administrator as well as other specific duties. I tend to like variety and Roe Motors has allowed me to have a part in many different aspects of the dealership. It is family owned and I became part of the family which was something I sought, belonging. I have grown up into a person that I am proud of.

In 1982 I went to drug and alcohol treatment and have been sober ever since. I have spent much time in counseling dealing with my past and becoming who the Lord wanted me to be. I served in Lay Counseling Ministry at River Valley Church were I was the team leader for some years and instructed classes for others to develop their skills in care giving.

I now live in a lovely little house just up from GPHS next to Rick Brown and his wife Kathi. Rick Brown also graduated in 1971 from GPHS. Funny how life takes so many twist and turns and were you end up. Looking forward to seeing some of you. I have not made it to any of our reunions and can hardly believe this is our 50th. If anyone wants to email me please do. I have been in touch with a few people, especially those from our Flemming years.

Not the end of the journey...These are challenging times and I am grateful for all the experiences of my Life so far. Hope to write a book someday.
