Sandra was a woman of great faith. She suffered a lot of losses in her life, but her faith never wavered. She enjoyed jewelry and all kinds of baubles. Even though it may have seemed cheap and worthless to others, she saw beauty in it and enjoyed wearing it. One of her favorite pass times was sitting and watching the rain. When it rained, she would sit at the window and marvel at the awesomeness of God. She loved spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. She was a wonderful mother and grandmother, not only to those who were her family, but to anyone that came into her life. Her kindness, compassion and generosity will be forever remembered in the lives of those she loved.

Her survivors include her children, Billy Kirk of Illinois, Jenny (Sean) Thompson of Waverly, Tennessee, Rebecca Tomlin of McMinnville, Tennessee, sisters, Wanda Frazier of Tullahoma, Tennessee, Patricia (Teddy) Urban of Illinois, Linnie (Jeff) Mooneyham of Walland, Tennessee, eight grandchildren, two special grandchildren whom she spent a lot of time with, Jimmy and Jacob Florez, and several great grandchildren.

Sandra was also survived by her special nephews, Wade Frazier, Robbie Frazier and niece, Jessica Darnell. She is survived by great nephews, Tripp, Briar, Noah, and Jayce, as well as great nieces, Serinity, Summer, Nova, and Copeland.
