Mainspring improves the quality of life in our community through increased economic opportunity

11/02/2026

Mainspring extends its deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Sandy Davidson.

Sandy was a dedicated and faithful volunteer who was always there when we needed her. We could count on her to be at the table during our annual Christmas Tree Lighting event, no matter how bitterly cold the weather.

Each year, Sandy also lovingly fluffed our wreaths, helping prepare them to bring holiday cheer and light to our downtown.

Thank you, Sandy, for your dedication, kindness, and all that you have done for Mainspring and our community. Your contributions will not be forgotten, and you will be greatly missed.
