Daughter of Carlton and Loraine Wiegand, and a lifelong resident of both Neenah and Menasha, WI, she was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend whose kindness touched all who knew her.

Sandra was a 1959 graduate of Menasha High School. She worked at ThedaClark Regional Medical Center for 30 years as a lab aide. After retiring, she devoted more than a decade to volunteering at St. Joe’s Food Pantry in Menasha, giving her time generously to help those in need.

She loved spending time with her family and rarely missed a Green Bay Packers game. Over the years she enjoyed countless hobbies, including baking, darts, ceramics, bowling, needlepoint, sewing, and camping, and she especially treasured the tradition of Friday night fish fries. A spirited traveler, she made a yearly trip to Las Vegas, where she delighted in the sights and excitement of the city.

In 1996, Sandra married Jack Hablewitz and together they shared many wonderful years filled with love and companionship.
