Joyfully, one of our past Willow Tree Teen Institute (WTTI) youth staff introduced Sandy as follows:
- Crazy, quacky, quirky, and fun; our next presenter is a friend to everyone;
- Sandy Queen I’m sure you will all adore; Because she’s got a great presentation in store.
- She teaches us to be aware; Of our true colors, to show others we care.
- A dear friend to Charlie and Sue; She’s also a friend of WTTI, and soon, to you, too.
- She wears funny hats and bright colors, it’s true; But it’s all to bring out the child in you.
- But pay attention, and take a close look; She’s a really smart woman, and has even written a few books.
- Lecturer, humorist, and educator for all; With her around, you’ll learn a lot and have a ball.
- I can talk to her about anything night or day; I know you’ll all soon feel the same way.
- A great big part of our Willow Tree scene; Please give a huge hand for Sandy Queen!
