Sandra Kay Upcott

MORENCI – Sandra Kay Upcott, age 75, of Morenci, passed away Wednesday, June 26, 2024, at ProMedica Toledo Hospital. She was born in Pontiac on October 27, 1948, to the late Delbert and Dorothy Hardenburgh. On July 22, 1967, in Waterford, she married Terry Upcott, and he survives.
Sandy was always proper – a true lady.
She was consistently involved in church and made sure that everyone there felt loved and welcomed. Any project that she took on was not complete until it was done to perfection. She did all of this with grace and humility, never wanting to be in the spotlight. She truly did not know her own worth.
Her pride in her children and grandchildren was shared with anyone that would listen. She spent much time teaching them. Whether it was academic, personal, or spiritual, she made sure that they all had learned what they would need for this life. She always said, "I love you and Jesus loves you!", making sure they knew that she loved Him, and He loves THEM.
She will be greatly missed by her family and all of those that her life touched. Because, when she touched your life, whether it was in a big way or a small way, you knew that you were loved.
Left to cherish her memory are her husband, Terry; children, Pastor Terry C. (Jennifer) Upcott and Tracy (Floyd) Schell; 10 grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; brother, Ethan (Tammy) Hardenburgh; and sister, Roxanne Hardenburgh. Along with her parents, she was preceded in death by a brother, Roger Hardenburgh; and a sister, Carolyn Newcombe.
