Sandra L. Rakowski's Obituary
Sandra Lou Rakowski, quiet and caring mother, sister, and grandmother, passed away Saturday, September 25, 2021. Per her wishes, cremation will take place with no service to follow.
Sandra was born March 4, 1948 in Big Rapids, MI, the daughter of Edgar and Marvella (Grey) Cope. She married Thomas Rakowski I, on August 25,1972, and together the two grew their family to include three children. Sandra enjoyed reading and working on the family farm. She worked as an adult foster care provider for many years, which was a perfect fit for such a compassionate woman. Hard work came naturally to Sandra; she always provided for her family even when it wasn’t easy. Her reserved and loving nature will be deeply missed by her children, Thomas (Kathy) Rakowski II, Edgar Rakowski, and Eve (Darrell) Allan; sister, Shirley Goddard, and grandchildren, Sara and Ryley. Sandra was preceded in death by her parents and husband, Thomas Rakowski.
