In memory of Sandra Jane Ruller (Appleby).
June 10, 1962 to December 13, 2022.
Sandra Jane Ruller passed away on Tuesday, December 13, 2022, surrounded by her family. She was 60 years old. After being diagnosed with a rare mutation of metastatic colon cancer, she fought hard for a year to have more time with her family.
Sandra was born on June 10, 1962 in Chemainus, BC. She lived in Chemainus, Saltair, and more recently, Crofton. She is predeceased by her parents George and Shirley Appleby. She is survived by her husband Tim; daughter Marissa; grandchildren Hudson, Blake, and Darius; and her siblings Devina, Wilma, and Jack.
The family thanks the many doctors and nurses involved in her excellent care at the BC Cancer Agency in Victoria, the Cancer Clinic at Cowichan District Hospital, the Community Care and Palliative Care programs in the Cowichan Valley, and Cowichan Hospice House.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, January 7, 2023 at 1pm. Chemainus United Church - 9814 Willow St., Chemainus, BC.
Rather than flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Sandra's name to the BC Cancer Agency or to Cowichan Hospice House.
