Sad day at Sandy Point

[ghfromaltonbay]

For all who may have stayed at Sandy Point or enjoyed their restaurant over the years -- Annelle Ouellette, wife of the late owner Bric Ouellette, passed away on Dec. 3rd. Annelle was a Mississippi belle who adapted to life with the NH 'Yankees' after marrying Bric in 1960. She was a lovely, warmhearted lady and will be sorely missed by all of us who got to know her and most especially by her three children and 8 grandkids. RIP, dear friend.

She was a fine lady and loved her family and friends. I was so sad to hear the news. You are right, she will certainly be missed by many of us.
