Sandra Lee Kuhlman passed away peacefully at home on Monday, December 5, 2022.
A memorial service for Sandy will be held on Monday, December 12, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. at Emmanuel United Methodist Church in Horicon, WI with Rev. Renae Dymond officiating. Visitation for Sandy will be from 10:00 a.m. until the time of service at 11:00 a.m. at church. Inurnment will be held at a later date.
Sandy was born to Roy and Thirza (Tillema) Kuhlman on April 18, 1961 in Waupun, Wisconsin. She graduated from Horicon High School in 1979 and shortly after started working at ER Wagner in Hustisford. She retired from Wagners in 2009.
Sandy spent her retirement as an Avon representative and helping out the family on the Kuhlman farm. She loved spending time with her family, especially her niece, nephew, and grand-nephews.
Sandy was dedicated to her church and church family at Juneau United Methodist Church, acting as treasurer and sharing her baking and crafting talents for their many gatherings and bake sales. She loved making her own greeting cards, and all of her extended family and friends were the lucky recipients. She also carried on the family tradition from her parents and was active with the Dodge County Dairy Promotion Committee.
Sandy is survived by her siblings: Laura (Bryan) Schmude of Horicon, Linda Kuhlman of Evansville, Mark (Stephanie) Kuhlman of Horicon, and Amy Kuhlman of Horicon; nephew Zackery (Dana) Schmude, niece Stefanie Schmude, great-nephews Mason and Liam Schmude, and many beloved aunts, uncles, and cousins.
She was preceded in death by her parents.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to Juneau United Methodist Church.

To Sandys family. First of all you have my deepest sympathy. I have known Sandy since my Senior year in high school. I did a coop program at Wagners for a year,where I met Sandy, b4 going to beauty school. I have been cutting Sandy's hair since then. I will greatly miss seeing her. I always enjoyed our conversation about the farm, fair, and our fair projects. I so wish I could have been there today for her funeral. I have been sick for several days with covid. Prayers to you all, helping you get through her loss.🙏❤

Memories of Sandy and her family have been with me all week. As the youngest child of our family, I was only 9 when Sandy was born in 1961 and I was a very, very proud Aunt. Sandy was the center of attention because she was our parent’s first grandchild. I remember when Mom and Dad were babysitting Sandy while Thirza and Roy went on a brief vacation out of state. Sandy was no problem during the day, but at night when she was supposed to go to sleep, she cried and cried. No amount of singing or humming, or rocking, or bouncing or walking could coax her to sleep. Dad finally suggested we go for a ride with her, and that’s what we did. It worked really well--until he pulled into the driveway. So Dad backed out of the driveway and off we went again. She eventually fell asleep for the night. I think we did that for a couple hours -- every night ‘til Thirza and Roy came home.
Sandy and I shared a hobby -- making homemade greeting cards. She introduced me to card making and I bought cards from her until I could manage my own crafting. We attended card gatherings and workshops and “mega sales” in Madison; we went to Rockford once for a Super Workshop. She has sent dozens of cards to family and friends and they were always made with and signed “Love Sandy.” Getting one of her cards in the mail was such a treat. She was also a scrap booker and she has made many beautiful albums that tell the stories of family reunions and birthdays, graduations, and Christmases. She’s left a bit of herself behind in all of those scrapbooks and in the cards she gifted us.
Sandy loved to bake, and once in a while she would make her mother’s absolutely delicious Chocolate Marshmellow cookies for me. She and Amy came to our house in recent years to try out new cookie recipes -- especially macarons. I remember one baking session when we made several new flavors of macarons. Sandy took over the filling of the cookies and declared herself to be the Official Macaron Taste Tester. Of course, she was excellent at both filling and tasting.
Her passing comes as a shock. I thought we’d have so many more days to share our love of making cards, to talk about old movies, especially musicals, to make plans for baking and to reminisce about fun gatherings. They made her happy. Me too. She quietly brightened our lives and we will miss her deeply.
