Sandy Hedke, 79, of Rolling Meadows, Illinois passed away peacefully on October 26, 2026 surrounded by her loving family.

She was born on July 3, 1947 in Elgin, Illinois and spent her life as a mother, dispatcher, cosmetician, and childcare worker. Sandy was known above all for her love of God, family, and friends, and loved going to Hobby Lobby and craft fairs. She always said, “I love my boys” along with their families and always loved being around people.

She is survived by her husband, Ron, children Scott (Shona), Todd (Debbie), Brian (Kristine), seven grandchildren, one great grandchild, and her sister Debbie (Tom).

Sandy was a beautiful lady with a million dollar smile and a heart of gold. She will be sorely missed.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Alzheimer’s research.
