Sandra "Sandie" Segaline

The halls of Heaven rejoiced on February 25th with a homecoming celebration for a beloved daughter of the King. Sandra T Segaline (Scott) was greeted at heavens gates by her parents (Elmer & Gertrude "Pat" Scott), her brothers (Dennis & Terrance Scott), sister (Elaine Phelps) and her Son (Michael Segaline). "Sandie" went home to be with our Lord surrounded by her loved ones. Her wishes for her obituary are as follows: "...sure why not, just make it read like dust jacket of a great novel". The world brightened a little on February 17th, 1934 when light of Sandra's eyes first opened and twinkled; her story takes place in the 88 years that light shone on. Born to pioneers of the Oregon Trail, our Matriarch was raised in Wenatchee, a Panther graduate class of '52, she would later return to raise a family of her own, after completing a degree in nursing from Gonzaga University. In a time with less tolerance our brave heroine met and married the son of Italian immigrants (John D. Segaline) in September of 1954. They met on a blind date, the handsome Italian man with a car took a double date to go swimming in Diamond Lake. It was at one of the drive in movie dates, when John fell asleep she knew, "This is my man." Their love is strong, and true; virtues and morals frozen in time held them together for 67 years, and multiplied into 5 children, 13 grandchildren, and 20 great-grandchildren. Their trips to the Lake Wenatchee family cabin are cherished memories of the whole clan. Building their orchard home of 50 years was another grand adventure for Sandy & John. Together she and John would run their orchard. A true leading Lady at the helm, teaching all the children that working is a great joy. No one left her house, or orchard on an empty stomach for she practiced charity. Sandra's thoughtful and thought provoking intelligence gave opportunity to impart wisdom and humor upon those who thought they could outsmart her. Sandra was no stranger to mischief, either getting up to it herself, or having read about it in many great novels; her library shelves were bursting. Her adventures continued as our stylish and classy mother participated in PTA, CDA, and Holy Apostles parish with the Saint Anne's guild. With 5 children to root on Sandie never missed a sporting event. She enjoyed the adventures & comradery with her classmates in WHS alumni "Club". The greatest struggle our fierce soul face was a tired heart. She kept on rolling with a smile on her face and a joke on her lips, determined to get another day in with her kids. For the love of her family, she found joy in the everyday and was never disappointed, for she loved you for who you are. Unsurprisingly, in the end it was John's hand she wanted to hold... Survived by her husband John D Segaline, Children Joseph (Julie) Segaline, Theresa McCarver, Scott (Brenda) Segaline, and Linda Segaline. A Memorial Mass is being held on Tuesday, March 8th, at 11 am Holy Apostles Catholic Church. A Rosary is being prayed at 10:30, Graveside committal and lunch to follow. Arrangements assisted by Chapel of the Valley, East Wenatchee.
