Extended family includes a number of loving nieces and nephews along with three half-brothers and two half-sisters. Notable recognition goes to Myke Griffeth, a loyal friend who brought joy to Sandy’s final years.
Sandy was a decades long member of Mt. Zion United Methodist Church. Always eager to be active and involved, she enjoyed memberships in her local DAR chapter, garden club, and bridge clubs. For 52 years, she was a volunteer at Hunter Oaks nursing home, often providing care and comfort to those considerably younger. Prior to mobility issues, Sandy maintained her beautiful lawn at her Lake Norman home. In addition, she was a long-time employee of Maintenance Supply Company in Huntersville, N.C.
