Sandra Patrick Obituary

Sandra White Patrick, 77, entered into eternal rest on Sunday, July 11, 2021. Born August 22, 1943 to the late Archie Milton White Sr., and Evelyn Moore White, Sandra was a lifelong Poquoson resident.

She was a faithful member of Emmaus Baptist Church and was actively involved in the choir, Sunday School, and founded the "Bodies in Motion" Class. For many years, Sandra was involved in sports including women's softball, volleyball and bowling. Sandy also served her community by acting as an election official. She was also a member of the Charles Parish Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Initially employed with NASA, she left to pursue her best job as a stay-at-home mom. She returned to NASA in 1984 and worked there until her retirement, later providing care for her mom.

Sandra is reunited in Heaven with her loving husband of 54 years, William Sidney Patrick, Jr.; son, Jeffrey Scott Patrick; and her parents.

Left to cherish her memory are her children, Teresa Patrick Millis and her husband, Robert of Lanexa, Shawn Donahue Patrick and his wife, Katie of Poquoson; grandchildren, Brendan Millis, William Patrick, Hunter Patrick, Aaron Whitehead and his wife, Tessa, Alexandra Whitehead, Allyson Whitehead; great-grandchildren, Blair Whitehead and Bishop Whitehead; brothers, Archie Milton White, Jr. and his wife, Patty of Poquoson, and Ronald Lee White of Poquoson; as well as many loving nieces, nephews, extended family, and dear friends.
