      Sandra was born Dec. 30, 1942, in Gary, Ind., to Robert Dinkmeier and Geraldine (Potts) Dinkmeier. She grew up in Pelican Rapids, Minn., graduating high school in 1960. In 1966, she met and married the love of her life, Vince Kilde. They spent 15 years in Fergus Falls, Minn., raising their family. After being a stay-at-home mom for many years, she attended nursing school at Fergus Falls Community College, receiving her LPN degree, graduating the top of her class.

      She loved being a nurse and caring for others. In 1982, the family moved to Hazen, eventually settling in Beulah in 1994. She spent the majority of her career caring for the residents at the Knife River Care Center in Beulah. After retirement, she continued her nursing career working occasional plant outages which she thoroughly enjoyed. Sandy enjoyed all kinds of crafts, playing bingo, baking and spending time with her family. She was the best Grandmother on earth to her grandchildren whom she nurtured, loved and took great pride in. She will be sadly missed by all of her family and friends. But we know she is smiling and happy again, to be with her life time love, Vince, who passed away in January 2009.

      Fortunate to have shared her life are her childre, Teresa Carrigan, Bismarck, Brad Kilde and his wife Kristi, Glen Ullin, Lisa and her husband William Layton, Hazen, Steven Kilde and his wife Melissa, Bismarck, Stacee and her husband Curtis McLaughlin, Beulah, Jodi Lynn and her husband Danny Hales, Supply, N.C., and Jason Kilde and his wife Hollee, Halliday; her grandchildren, Brandon Carrigan, Anthony and Stephanie Kilde, Jaydon and Autumn Hurley, Dawson and Adrianna Layton, Logan, Parker, and Madison Kilde, Samantha, Colton and Mariah McLaughlin and Natalee and Kane Kilde. She also had "heart" grandchildren who were dear to her including, Sheena Johnson, Kristin Bauer, Gabrianna Biles and Brekken and Dawson Bieber. She is also survived by two sisters, Sally Hanson and Penny Autey, both of Pequot Lakes, Minn.; her brother, Robert Dinkmeier Jr., Lamar Mo.; and many nieces and nephews. Also lost without her will be her four-legged friend, Pugsley.

      She was welcomed into Heaven by her love, husband and soulmate, Vince; and her parents, Robert and Geraldine.

      While we were not ready to let her go, we are comforted to know her lonelyness grief and pain are now over. She is with her husband once more.
