Obituary
Sandra "Jean" Rock, 70, owner of Sutter Deli, died Friday, January 24, 2020, at CHI Health St. Francis Medical Center in Grand Island, with family at her side.
Jean was born in Grand Island to John and Kathryn (Donovan) Rock on August 21, 1949.
Jean lived life to the fullest, always having fun, making friends and laughing. She had many different careers in her lifetime, but her dream and her passion were to cook, have a restaurant and be a part of and give back to the community. She was lucky enough to find a partner in life, Bill Werner, who shared her passion and her dream; together they created Sutter Deli.
She is survived by her partner, Bill Werner, her daughter Marni Heydt with husband, Joe; her brother Pat Rock; sisters Sue Rohweder and Sharon Jarecke, as well as many nieces, nephews, chosen children and grandchildren - and one of her greatest joys was being a grandmother.

In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts can be directed to, Grand Island Central Catholic or Make a Wish Foundation, in Jean's name. And if you want to do something besides a memorial gift, go have lunch somewhere, laugh a lot and remember Jean. She would love that.
