SANDRA LYNN DARRAGH
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Sandra at the age of 74. Sandra fought a courageous battle with Cancer.
She is survived by her husband of 53 years Terry, sons, Trevor and Blair (Kristin), grandsons, Aiden and Decklin, and sister Donna and nephews and nieces.
Sandra was the ultimate wife, mother and grandmother. Her two grandchildren held a very special place in her heart. She loved her outings with them, often taking them for lunch and shopping. Always making sure they were very well dressed. Sandra was a very special person; often putting everyone's happiness before her own and leaving a smile on the face of those she loved. Sandra especially enjoyed her meetings and dinners with friends. Sandra left a lasting impact on anyone that met her and will be missed by all.
As per her wishes, there will be no funeral. A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 p.m. Tuesday, August 25, 2026 at the Royal Canadian Legion, 215 Maxwell King drive.
The family would like to thank CancerCare Winnipeg and all the wonderful staff that assisted her on her journey. In lieu of flowers, please donate to CancerCare Manitoba.

Dear Terry,Trevor, Blair & Kristin, Aiden & Decklin Please know that we are both thinking of all of you since the loss of our wonderful friend Sandy. Our friendship has remained for the last 50 years and we are thankful for all the special and fun times and occasions we all shared. We were able to enjoy our last summer lakeride to Wpg Beach for lunch and a cocktail with lots of laughs just before she was admitted to the hospital. She was always soft spoken but had the toughest spirit of anyone we have ever known. Always remembered with love.

Terry & family. No words can adequately express my sympathy for your loss. Her love for her family will always be evident in your memories, may they give you some comfort while enduring your loss.

To Terry, Trevor, Blair, and the rest of the family that Sandra loved and spoke about so dearly, please accept my heartfelt condolences. I don't even know where to begin. I had the privilege of knowing Sandra for almost 40 years, and I will always think of her as my partner in crime. She was such a wonderful, joyful soul who had an incredible gift for making every day brighter. Going to work was never just work when Sandra was there—she made it fun, interesting, and filled with laughter. We shared so many special moments together, from shopping trips and rides home in the car to girls' lunches and of course of Grand Forks Shopping Weekend. There are countless everyday conversations that became cherished memories. Even after we both left CMHC and didn't see each other as often, Sandra was always asking us when we were getting together and whenever we got together it felt as though no time had passed. We would pick up right where we left off, reminiscing about old times while creating new memories. Our girls' outings were always filled with laughter, and Sandra's youthful spirit, kindness, and caring heart made every moment unforgettable. Sandra loved deeply and cared so much for the people in her life. I feel her loss every day, but I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to know and love her for what feels like a lifetime. Terry, I know how deeply she loved you, Trevor, Blair, and your entire family. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and whenever she spoke about all of you, her words were filled with immense love and pride. Even through her battle with cancer, Sandra showed us all what courage, strength, and a true love of life looked like. She fought with everything she had. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time. Sandra was the kind of person you simply could never forget. She was an amazing wife, mother, grandmother, and a truly thoughtful and loyal friend. I miss her dearly, and I will always be grateful that I had the chance to see her one last time and tell her how much I loved her. May her beautiful soul rest in peace. She will be forever missed, and I will carry the precious memories we shared together in my heart always.
