Sandra L. Farrell, 77 died on December 28, 2022, at Madison Healthcare.  She was born July 17, 1945 in Cleveland and had lived in Concord Township for more than 40 years.

A 1963 graduate of Riverside High School, Painesville Township, she had enjoyed rollerskating, horseback riding, swimming in the Grand River and bowling in her youth.

She married John Farrell on October 7, 1972 in Grace Lutheran Church, Thompson.  They celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary together at Madison Heathcare in October of 2022.

One of Sandy's great loves was sharing her love of horses with her niece, Kelly, and husband.  The three of them shared years enjoying the 4-H activities Kelly was involved in and spending time at the Lake County Fair.  Sandy and John enjoyed taking Kelly to many horse shows, especially NEOHA and the The Appaloosa Breed Shows.

She worked at many places throughout her working years including: Krestensen Realty, Painesville; The Telegraph, Painesville; Lake County National Bank in Painesville; and was a Probate Court Deputy Clerk for Judge Skok and Judge Klammer before she retired.

Sandy was preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Mary Salmonson.  Survivors are: her husband John; her sister, Sharon (Marty) Mazeika; Kelly (Chris) Fredriks and great-nephews Dreas and Gavyn; her brother Richard Salmonson and his family.

A private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.  The family suggests memorial donations be made in her honor to the Lake County Saddle Horse, Lake County 4-H Extension Office, 105 Main Street Suite B402 Painesville, Ohio 44077.
