Sandra was born in Glendale on April 12, 1949, to Teresa and Frank Reynolds. With her older brother Patrick, they moved to Mountain View. She graduated from Holy Cross High School and in 1969 went to work as a clerk for Pacific Bell (now SBC) in Palo Alto.
In 1973 she met Michael Clay Mauk and they were married July 29, 1979, at St. Joseph’s Church in Mountain View. Brigette Marie, their only child was born April 19, 1979. Sandy’s focus on her career was always second to her family and friends. Her involvement with her daughter’s 13-year participation at Branham Dance and three years as a color guard member at Westmont High School kept Sandy’s world revolving around her family. She loved every minute of life.
Sandy also loved to cook, read, camp, attend auto races and play with the apple of her eye, her grandson Jonathan. At the height of her career as a manger with SBC, she retired on January 6, 2004, and looked forward to retirement near her daughter and son-in-law Nathan and grandson Jonathan in Placerville.
Her dream was cut tragically short by a sudden illness. She was diagnosed with uterine cancer approximately a year ago and was told that it was terminal just two weeks ago. Sandy was a 15-year resident of Morgan Hill. All who knew Sandy feel love and adoration for this truly loving, selfless woman who only wanted to make others happy.
Sandy, your family and friends will remember you always, and a day won’t go by without missing your beautiful smile or laugh. Your memories will live on within all the lives you touched.
A Memorial Mass took place March 24, 2004, at St. Joseph’s Church, 582 Hope St., Mountain View.
Arrangements were made by Cusimano Family Colonial Mortuary, Mountain View.
