Sandra "Sandy" Kay Bone
August 11, 1948 - September 17, 2025

Sandra "Sandy" Kay Bone of Willard, Missouri, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by her loving family.

Sandy dedicated 15 years as Head of Housekeeping at Willard Care Center, where she was known for her strong work ethic and warm heart. She had a passion for gardening and was well known throughout the community for her love of decorating for Halloween and Christmas, bringing joy to neighbors and friends year after year.

Her proudest role in life was being called "Nana". Sandy was married to the love of her life, Ron Bone, for 45 years. She was known for her nurturing spirit and her ability to care for everyone around her.

Sandy is survived by her husband, Ron Bone; sons, Jeff Alumbaugh (wife Holly), Nathan Alumbaugh (wife Kristie); her loving daughter, Jodie Bone; and her beloved grandchildren, Chase Alumbaugh, Ashleigh Gutierrez (husband Austin); Eric Alumbaugh (partner AJ) and Tristen Alumbaugh. She is also survived by her brother, Darryl Epperson (wife Carol); sister, Janice Covert (husband Jack); sisters-in-law, Shelley Leonard, Patty Powell (husband Keith), and Donna Wood (husband Steven); along with numerous extended family members and the entire Willard community who loved and cherished "Nana".

She was preceded in death by Leona Latty and Steven O'neal.

Sandy's life was one of kindness, generosity, and devotion to family. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
