Sandra Lou Hayne, age 75, of Apple Valley, passed away peacefully on January 1, 2026.

Sandy is survived by her children, Rebecca (Mark) Nutter and Scott Hayne; her beloved grandchildren, Charlotte, Emily, Zoe, and Ava; her siblings, Cheryl Gerkin, Sharon Deyo (Ron), and Gary Robinson; and other loving relatives and friends.

Sandy was a caregiver at heart, and her life was defined by love and service to others. As a mother and grandmother, she gave endlessly of herself. A skilled homemaker, Sandy showed her love through cooking, baking, and sewing. She worked as a talented seamstress and a compassionate home care provider. She had a wicked sense of humor and an often-uncontrollable laugh. Her care for others will never be forgotten.

Visitation for Sandy will take place on Thursday, January 8, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at White Funeral Home, located at 14560 Pennock Avenue, Apple Valley, Minnesota.

Interment will be held at Lebanon Cemetery.
