Sandra Sheppard

1940 - 2026

Sandra Kay Sheppard, 85, of Rohrersville, Maryland, passed away on March 26, 2026, peacefully at home. She was born in Brunswick on August 2, 1940, to Charles and Louise (Kline) Carter.

Sandra graduated from Brunswick High School in 1958 and went on to build a dedicated career in administrative work, including positions at Eyler & Associates and Fredericktowne Printing before retiring from SAIC at the National Cancer Institute on Fort Detrick as an Administrative Assistant.

Those who knew Sandra best knew that her grandchildren, Tanner and Cole, were the joy of her life. She was always in attendance at their events and was so proud of both. Sandra also found happiness in yard work, spending time with her animals, yearly trips to the Green Dragon flea market, Sunday car rides, Chris's crab cakes, and a good piece of coconut cake.

Sandra is survived by her husband of 62 years, Larry Sheppard; her daughter, Stephanie Halling, and son-in-law Chris Halling; her grandchildren, Tanner and Cole Halling; and her brothers, Wayne Carter and Robert Carter and his wife Kay. She was preceded in death by her parents, Charles and Louise Carter, and her sister, Elaine Coulter.

Burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made in Sandra's memory to the Washington County Humane Society or Hospice of Washington County.
