Sandy was born on September 12, 1949 in Tacoma to Howard A. and Lillian M. Clark Johnston.
She was raised in Snohomish where she met her husband Jerry Carlson. They lived in
Snohomish and raised their three daughters there. In 1989, they moved to Othello to farm
and enjoy their cattle operation.

and son-in-law Dave Bethel of Snohomish, Tanya and son-in-law John Lee of Quincy and Kim
Carlson of Othello; five grandchildren Katie, Joshua and Weston Bethel and Blaine and

numerous nieces, nephews and friends.
