Sandy

Leighton Ford tells a story of uncertainty, hope, sorrow and joy as his oldest son, Sandy, faced a rare and life-threatening heart disease. Leighton Ford shares the joy of his son's exceptional life and the pain of his untimely death. His story captures the vitality of a young man with a heart for God.
