Sandy, the daughter of Felix and Bernadette (Conroy) Langenfeld, was born on March 14, 1936 at St. Anthony Hospital in Carroll, Iowa. She grew up in Carroll and graduated from St. Angela's Academy in 1954. Sandy then enrolled with the St. Anthony School of Nursing in Carroll, and graduated in 1957.

On August 10, 1957, Sandy was united in marriage to Jim Ulveling at St. Lawrence Catholic Church in Carroll. The couple made their home in Breda, where Sandy was a devoted wife and mother to Jim and their seven children. Sandy was also a member of St. Bernard's Catholic Church, St. Bernard's Ladies Guild, the Breda American Legion Auxiliary, and the St. Anthony's Nurses Alumni Association. In addition, Sandy served a distinguished career as a nurse at St. Anthony Hospital in Carroll and the Carroll Manor. In 2013, Sandy and Jim moved to Carroll due to health reasons and joined St. John Paul II Parish. They cherished their Breda memories and continued to consider it "home".

Sandy enjoyed trips to Okoboji with great friends, playing bridge with her card group, and traveling. One of her most memorable trips was with Jim and their close friends for their 50th Wedding Anniversary. They took a few weeks traveling by car from Breda to the Pacific Coast and then to the Atlantic Coast. Sandy's greatest joys in life were her family and grandchildren. Sandy truly led the perfect example of the importance of faith, family, friends and service to others.
