Sandra Jean Wain
WINDHAM – Sandra Jean Wain, 77, died unexpectedly August 16, 2024, at Maine Medical Center, surrounded by family. She was born June 25, 1947, in Portland, to her parents Wayne and Blanche London Harris.
Sandy worked at Bradlees in Westbrook as a jewelry associate, where she remained until the store closed. She then filled her time working alongside friends at Cricket’s Corner and Hawkes Farm Stand.
Outside of work, volunteering was a major part of Sandy’s life. Sandy was also part of the Red Hat Society, her sorority, Beta Sigma Phi, Bunco, and a member of Friends Church, where she married her late husband, Ron, in 1980.
Sandy is survived by her brother, Gary Harris of Florida; her two sons, David (Jill) O’Brien of Windham and Shaun (Kristine) O’Brien of Florida; three grandchildren, Kaitlyn, Sarah, and Devin; many cousins, nieces, and nephews; as well as her friends who were just as important to her as family.
Above all else, family was the most important thing to her.
A Memorial Service will be held August 24, 2024, at 11 a.m. Pastor Janice Beattie will officiate at Friends Church, 374 Gray Road, Windham, ME. A Reception at the church will immediately follow.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
