Sandra Elaine Gauthier of Merlin passed away with her family by her side at the Chatham-Kent Hospice on Wednesday May 3, 2023. Daughter of the late Marian (nee Ford) (2015) and Ken Dawson (1971), also predeceased by her step-father Albert Eskritt (2007), Sandra was raised on the family farm outside of Merlin with her sister Heather Dawson and brother Murray Dawson. She was the self-proclaimed angel of the group!
In High School, she met a young man named Richard Gauthier and fell in love. They married in 1977 and raised their son Kenny also on the home farm. Sandra’s life was complete with the arrival of her grandchildren Samantha and Kayden who she loved with all her heart.
After working for a time at the hospital in Chatham, Sandra decided to team up with Richard, obtaining her truck driver’s license and running the roads with the cb handle “Northern Sunshine”. Their final trip was just last year…a 14,000 km vacation through the United States, up through British Columbia and back home… she was so happy that they did that. Beyond that, she enjoyed walking, she enjoyed stopping and talking to folks and watching animals along her travels and she enjoyed her family. She was loved and will be missed.
A Celebration of Life will be held and announced for Sandra at a later date.
