Sandra Tustison Obituary
Sandra Lou Tustison was born to Charles J. and Mary A. Stretch on March 18, 1953, in Gallatin, Missouri.
She was preceded in death by both parents, son James Earl Raider, four brothers: Donald Lee Stretch, Jim Stretch, Thomas Stretch, and Charles Stretch, three sisters: Thelma Louise Stretch, Mary Graves, and Carolyn Tustison.
Sandra eventually settled in the Kansas City, Missouri area. She had a kind heart and was always helping out others whenever and however she could.
She loved to stay busy. Whether she was just cleaning up around the house or doing yardwork. And she really, really loved yardwork. Just being outside planting and caring for her flowers was a joy.
Sandra departed this life May 29, 2025, at Research Medical Center. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
She is survived by two brothers: Ralph Stretch and John Stretch, three sisters: Charlotte Raider, Jane Reed, and Linda VanFossen, and other relatives and friends.
