Sandy West

I thought I would end the list sort of where I began... with The Runaways. Sandy West always seemed to me to be the Runaway that might be the girl that lived down the street. While the band's notoriety seemed mostly focused on the lingerie-wearing Cherie or the leather-clad Joan, it was T-shirt-and-jeans for Sandy. The ideal "California blond", Sandy attempted to continue her music career after The Runaways disbanded but never found much success. Sadly, Sandy West passed away October 21, 2006 due to lung cancer which had spread to her brain.
