Obituary of Sandy Craig

Sandy Arnett Craig, 62, of Winamac, IN went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, August 9, 2023.  She passed away at Northwest Health Hospital in LaPorte, IN.  Sandy was born on December 28, 1960 in South Bend, IN to J.B. and Kathleen Collins Arnett.  She was raised in North Judson, IN and graduated from NJSP High School in 1979.  On April 30, 1988, Sandy married Steve Craig in Winamac.  He survives.

Sandy worked at Eaton’s for many years until they closed.  She retired from Dr. Heinsen’s office where she had worked as a medical clerk.  Sandy was a member of the Winamac FOE #2580.  She was also a member of Church of the Heartland. 

Sandy loved her family dearly.  She especially cherished spending time with her grandsons, Casen and Kammy as well as talking on the phone with her grandson, Chance.  Sandy was Casen’s number one fan at the ballpark.  She enjoyed shopping, getting her hair done, and tanning (thanks Gerry Jo!).  Sandy liked going to church and riding in the golf cart with Steve and their dog, Spud. 

Sandy was full of life and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
