Sandra Bryan Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Adored by all who knew her, Sandra was born January 15, 1942, daughter of the late Elbert and Myra Forester. Sandra was a devout Christian who loved singing, watching old movies, and doting on her family. She was a selfless and compassionate friend who worked in the school system throughout her life starting as a high school English teacher at Sandy Springs High School and then at Beaver Ridge Elementary in Norcross and retiring at Brookwood High School in Snellville. Sandra loved fiercely. She was a wonderful Wife, Mother, Mother-in-Law, Daughter, Daughter-in-Law, Sister, Sister-in-Law, and Aunt. Perhaps the role she relished most was as "Grammy" to 8 grandchildren. She loved teaching and mentoring and particularly enjoyed teaching English as a second language at Lilburn First Baptist Church, where she impacted the lives of many.
Sandra leaves behind her precious husband of 58 years, Jimmie R. Bryan, daughter and son-in-law, Bonnie and Bruce Tolbert, daughter and son-in-law Robin and John Manherz and many loving nieces, nephews and dear friends. She was preceded in death by her 3 siblings, Aubrey Forester, Larry Forester, and Angelyn Lane.
A celebration of life service will be held on Monday, October 14, 2024 at 11:00 AM in the Bill Head Funeral Home Lilburn/Tucker Chapel. The family will receive friends 1 hour prior to the service.
