Sandra Kay Tronnes, 70, of Horace, ND, died peacefully in her home on October 22, 2020. Sandra was born on December 28, 1949 in Fargo, ND, and as a young child moved to Hickson, ND, and later to a farm by Wild Rice, ND. She was baptized and confirmed and was a Sunday School teacher at Hickson Lutheran Church. Sandra went to school in Wild Rice for a while, then graduated from Central High in Fargo, ND. She later went on to earn a business degree from Interstate Business College. Sandra drove school bus, worked at NDSU, Blue Cross and Noridian, and during this time she met her friend Lori. Sandra and Lori enjoyed watching movies, going out for lunch, and just hanging out enjoying each other’s company.
Sandy loved her frog collection, decorating for the Holidays, doing her word search, setting up obstacle courses for all the kids to do. She was a very caring and loving person who helped so many people. She loved her family and watching movies with Lynn, or just sitting outside watching the world go by. She will be truly missed by all.
