Sande passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by her family. Sande was born July 1, 1937, to Robert and Meredith Kop- per of South Bend, Indiana. She lived in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and graduated from South Side High School. After graduation, she at- tended the University of Michi- gan, was an active member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, and com- pleted her nursing degree before moving to California. On December 6, 1964, she married her true love, the Hon- orable Thomas Neal Thrasher (Ret), in San Francisco. The two met at a costume party, and the rest is history. After the wedding, they moved to Southern Califor- nia to finally reside in Villa Park. When asked what they should do with their backyard, consisting of horse corrals and tumbleweeds in 1973, Sande wished it to be trans- formed into a “park.” Through the years, they turned their home into the beautiful residence Sande had envisioned. She was active in her children’s lives. Many knew her as the go-to baker for all her children’s class parties. She thrived on being a present and loving mom to her children. Sande positively influ- enced all her kids, encouraging them to find their way in life. In doing so, she graciously refused the limelight or credit. Sande enjoyed cooking, sew- ing, traveling and gardening. She applied her expertise in garden- ing to life in general, knowing that what you plant and nurture in the near term, you will harvest down the road, whether it was the bountiful garden in the backyard or the meaningful connections. Everyone she came in touch with took note of her kindness in the community. Sande is survived by her hus- band of 57 years, Tom Thrasher; one son Thomas Thrasher Jr. (wife Allyson Pratt Thrasher); two daughters, Kathleen Thrasher Enge (husband Ron Enge), and Susannah Thrasher Shortall (hus- band Dan Shortall); grandchil- dren Julianna Thrasher, Mikayla Thrasher, Zachary Thrasher, Lauren Enge, Clark Enge, Coco Enge, Mason Shortall, Maddox Shortall, Meredith Shortall, and niece Tina Louise Fields Me- dalen. Her parents Robert and Meredith Kopper, and sister Joc- elyn Ann Kopper Field preceded her death. The family requests memorial donations be directed toward the Lewy Body Dementia Associa- tion (lbda.org) .
