Dear MMHS Classmates of 1978,

I have very sad news to report.  Sandy (Clark) Helton passed away on March 5th, 2019.  Scott Dills received a call from Sandy's younger sister Patty letting him know.  Patty also, forwarded this obituary from the Claskanie newspaper.  We are so sad for Sandy, all her family, and her sister Jeanette who was also one of our 1978 classmates.  We pray that they will be comforted in this great loss.

Always,

Darren Talley
