Sandra L Frankson

Born in Dayton, Ohio, on March 30, 1946, Sandy was the daughter of the late Thurman and Lillie (Pierce) Stanley. She was a graduate of Meadowdale High School in Dayton, Ohio, Class of 1964. Sandy dedicated time to raising her four children at home and also enjoyed a long career working in retail, where she worked for over two decades at Wal-Mart near the Dayton Mall.

A dedicated and active member of the First United Methodist Church of Springboro, Ohio, Sandy generously volunteered her time teaching Sunday school to Kindergarten and First Grade students.

In her earlier years, Sandy enjoyed a variety of pursuits, including gardening, music, painting, camping, and hiking. She had a passion for travel throughout the United States, particularly visiting National Parks such as Grand Teton, Zion, Mammoth Cave, and Yellowstone. Her deep interest in genealogy led her to spend countless hours meticulously researching her family's history, tracing their ancestry back to the 1500s.

Above all, Sandy cherished her family and will be profoundly missed. She is survived by her devoted husband of 53 years, Gerald A. Frankson, whom she married in September of 1972. She is also survived by her children: Kristi Strommen and her husband, Tim; Keith Frankson and his wife, Tracie; and Amy Payne and her husband, Robert. She leaves behind five beloved grandchildren: Oliver, Henry, Johnny, Aidan, and Elliana. Her brother Thomas Stanley and wife, Gayle; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, friends, neighbors, and extended family members.

Sandy was preceded in death by her parents; her son, John Frankson (1999); her brother, John Stanley (1960); and her sister, Carol (Stanley) Crowe (2023).

Visitation will be held for the family from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Monday, March 9th, 2026 at the Anderson Funeral Home, 40 North Main Street, Springboro, Ohio 45066.
