Sandra K. Sanders, a cherished mother peacefully passed away into the loving arms of her heavenly Father and Savior on Friday, January 26, 2024, after a brief illness. Born on September 26, 1941, in Corsicana, Texas, Ms. Sanders was the daughter of the late Decker and Eunice White Sanders.

During her remarkable 20 years as an Air Force wife, Ms. Sanders exemplified strength and grace, raising four children amidst numerous deployments and temporary duty assignments (TDYs). She stood as a steadfast pillar for her family.

A dear friend once described Ms. Sanders as "one of the sweetest flowers of all the field" and truly a most genuine Christlike believer. She embodied the qualities of a Proverbs 31 woman, possessing a servant's heart and a humble spirit. Ms. Sanders lived a life of quiet dedication, consistently performing acts of kindness in the background.

Ms. Sanders spent her adult life as a caregiver, extending compassion and assistance to many. She was known for her commitment to doing good for others. Ms. Sanders leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and service that will continue to resonate in the hearts of those who were blessed enough to know her.

In addition to her parents, Ms. Sanders was preceded in death by her son, Eddie D. Tucker; as well as grandson, Matthew R. Carter; sisters, JoAnne, and Jean; and brother, Dewey.

Her memory will be forever cherished by her sons, David Tucker, Gary Tucker; daughter, Cynthia Carter; her five grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren.

At the family’s request, all services held will be private.

Paraphrase of Knowing What I Know about Heaven

By Sarah Darling

I bet the trumpets played
 And the angels sang every sweet refrain of Amazing Grace
 And that heaven's hands opened up the gate
 And Sandra’s family danced when they saw her face
 As happy as they were to see her coming
 We were just as sad to have to watch her go
 
 Knowing what I know about heaven
 Believing that Sandra’s all the way home
 Knowing that she’s somewhere better
 Is all we need to let her go
 I could hope that we could pray her back
 But why on earth would we do that
 When she’s somewhere life and love never ends
 Knowing what I know about heaven
