She attended Hunt School and graduated from Trent High School on May 15, 1942. She went on to graduate from SDSU in 1946 with a business degree. She then graduated with her Masters degree in Business Administration from the University of Denver on June 3, 1953. She taught high school typing, bookkeeping, and business classes in Dell Rapids, Eagan, Trent, and Hendricks, MN. While teaching in Hendricks, MN, she met Clayton Sandro and they were married on Thanksgiving evening on November 25, 1954. In 1955, they moved to a farm near Trent and spent the next 27 years raising chickens, cattle, hogs, and children. She took pride in her garden and the fall was always filled with canning fresh foods for the winter. In October 1957, they adopted a son, Murray Clayton Sandro and then in August 1959, they adopted a daughter, Joni Lou Sandro. She spent 24 years teaching at the Flandreau Indian School and retired in 1990 after a 34 year teaching career.

During retirement, she and her husband, Clayton, enjoyed trips to Canada, Branson, MO, Minnesota, and Casper, WY. One of the greatest joys of her life was spending time with her grandchildren, Caleb and Whitney Bunce.

She is survived by her daughter, Joni (Peter) Bunce of Casper, WY, her grandchildren, Caleb Bunce of Caper, WY and Whitney Bunce of Huntsville, TX, and her daughter-in-law, Julie Sandro of Sioux Falls, SD.

He is preceded in death by his parents, 1 brother Blaine Sagmoe, and 1 son in law Charles “Mack” Lafargue. John is survived by his wife Verna, children Terri Lafargue of Houston TX, John (Jodi Petre) Sagmoe Jr. of Waukesha WI, step granddaughter Cara (Kris) Kerfoot. He is also survived by 1 brother Donald (Marsha) Sagmoe of Dell Rapids, SD and sister in Law Judy Sagmoe of Yankton, SD.
