Sandra Marilyn Hinkle

1948 - 2024

SANDRA (SANDI) MARILYN ROSS DEAN BURR HINKLE was born March 12, 1948, and passed away Saturday, June 28, 2024, at Hubbard Hospice House West, South Charleston after a long illness. She was 76.
Sandi was the youngest of eleven children born to Theodore and Glenna Ross. She was raised with her siblings on Coco Road, Elkview, WV. At the time of her death, she made her home in Yawkey, WV.
Sandi attended Coco Grade School and Herbert Hoover High School.
Her love of music and gifted soprano voice could have garnered her a career in country music. Instead, she prided herself in knowing the words to thousands of songs across a broad spectrum of genres.
Sandi had a gift for making everyone feel welcome and loved. Her employment as a manager at Shoney's in both West Virginia and Kentucky, she worked at Blvd Lanes and as a dispatcher for Quick Delivery gave her the opportunity to talk with others-which she loved doing - and prove her work as a dedicated, trusted employee.
Sandi loved people! Thus, she felt a deep sadness when some preceded her in death; her parents, her husband, Tommy Hinkle (3rd husband), Ed Burr (2nd husband) and Sonny Dean (1st husband). She also grieved at the loss of her siblings, Eloise Myers, Thelma Gruary, Arlene Robertson, Neil Ross, Sue Brown, Carol Hall, and Karen Wolf. Also preceding her in death were her stepson, Phillip Lovejoy, and granddaughters, Brittany Edens and Shylowe Lily.
Left to cherish her memory are her children, Teresa (Rich) Deveaney and Christopher (Anne Marie) Walker; stepchildren, E.G. (Heather) Burr, Suzette Burr, Shayne (Leigh) Burr, Scott Doug (Abby) Lovejoy, Tammy Lovejoy, Jesscia (Evan) Karmazen; grandchildren, Christopher Riffee, Dane Walker, Hank (Jessica) Lovejoy, Eric (Tiffany) Lovejoy, Joshua Lovejoy, Grace Wilson and Cammi Karmazen, Steven and Megan Adkins: five great grandchildren, several nieces, nephews, and friends who held a special place in her heart.
Also left to grieve her passing are her sisters, Sherry Harper, Jenny (Lee) Cutshaver, Forrest Claire, Pat (Bill) Loudin. She will be greatly missed by her cats, Lucy and Mack.
