Sandie was born July 16, 1951, in Ottumwa, the daughter of Ira and Violet Adams. When she was a young girl she was adopted by Ralph and Lila Dickerson. She graduated from Oskaloosa High School with the class of 1969.

Following graduation she worked as a waitress at Perry’s Café and later Stout’s Café in Oskaloosa. On August 31, 1974, she was united in marriage to Joseph Coder at the First Pentecostal Church in Oskaloosa. Following their marriage, Sandie stayed home to care for her family. After her son was grown, she went to work at Blimpie sub shop in Oskaloosa. After Blimpie closed in Oskaloosa she went to work at Wendy’s, she worked there until ill health forced her retirement.

She enjoyed sewing, quilting and listening to southern gospel music. Sandie was a wonderful cook and a talented baker, and made pies that many argued could have been store bought. She was never afraid to try a new recipe.

Her family includes her husband of over 39 years, Joe Coder of Oskaloosa; a son and his wife, Joe “Aaron” and Jennifer Coder of Ankeny; two grandsons, Schyler and Seth Coder; and many brothers and sisters.
