Greenfield Center - Sandra L Nappi “Tillie” went into the arms of the Lord Tuesday, February 5, 2008 at Saratoga Hospital after a courageous battle with cancer.  She was 57.

Born February 8, 1950 in Presque Isle Maine, she was the daughter of the late Ernest S Hughes and Mamie K York Hughes-Lubee. Tillie had many interests in her life.  She was an avid crafter. 

She loved taking care of the young and the old, anyone in need.  She enjoyed all aspects of people’s lives.  Her grandchildren were the light of her life and she would do anything for any of them.  They are who they are today because of her influence on them. Tillie was a member of the American Legion Adirondack Post 70 Ladies Auxillary where she served as President for many years.  She devoted every Sunday to BINGO at the American Legion where she worked tirelessly.
