Sandra Jean Carter, 75, passed away December 28, 2025. She was born June 5, 1950 in Detroit, the daughter of Aaron W. and Margaret Mae (Green) Carter. She graduated from Romeo High School.

She was an avid Miami Dolphins fan and spent much of her free time watching football games and collecting Miami Dolphins' memorabilia. Sandra enjoyed traveling with her family to many interesting destinations, but she also really enjoyed putzing and fixing things around the house.
She is survived by her loving nieces and nephew, Dorlisa Carter and family; Sharron Carter; Camille (Carter) Cohron and family; Michelle (Carter) Moore and family; Michael Carter and family; Marletta Carter; and many more family, friends, and loved ones. She was preceded in death by her parents; nephew, Marlin Carter II; brother, Marlin Carter Sr.; and sister-in-law, Jonetta Carter. Services were private.
