Sandra Jean Donnell

Born September 4, 1970 in Queens New York to Jim & Elena Parrow, Sandi was the kind of daughter that every Parent would hope to have. She possessed an exceptional ability to make life for others much better than they could have hoped for.

Her greatest joy as a child was spending time with her brother Jimmy, who also passed away in 1989 from the very same heart condition that took her life just days ago. They were an inseparable duo and his passing left her with a void in her heart that could never be filled. It is so ironic that they both passed away from a literal Broken Heart.

Both even put on Christ in Baptism 8 years later and served Faithfully at the Mayfield Road church of Christ, followed by faithful service in Christ at the Scurry church of Christ.

After Graduating, Sandi began a career in Real Estate and moved up from a Sales Associate to a Sales Manager overseeing a large group of professionals at Highland Homes breaking multiple Sales records in the process and setting on outstanding example for others to follow..

While Sandi rocked and wore many hats, her Happiest moments was when she was Momma. Her bond grew even closer to her daughter, Alex, and was upgraded to “GiGi”. The outpouring of Love that she showered upon her Grandchildren, Jude & Jennings, was not only beautiful to see but even better to be a part of. Her Creativity, Love and Passion to make Memories will live in our hearts forever as we continue making new ones. She also Loved to Travel and absolutely fell in love with her Mom’s Beautiful home town of Maiori Italy on the Magnificent Amalfi Coast.

She was exceptional in so many ways. She had a magnetic smile and a heart bigger than Texas. She was a True Light in the Darkness, and a Melody in everyone’s heart. Her Greatest joy was doing for others what they could not accomplish on their own. Her inner strength enabled her to fight for her life for three days in terrible pain and discomfort after enduring 3 surgical procedures lasting over 18 hours combined, in just 3 weeks while always striving to share a gentle smile to all those gathered around her during this overwhelming suffering.

Sandi is preceded in death by her beloved brother Jim, Grandmother Jean Parrow.

Sandi is survived by her Parents Jim & Elena Parrow of Trophy Club Texas, a beloved husband Patrick also of Trophy Club, who she shared her life with for 37 years, her Fantastic and Unbelievably caring Daughter Alex, Husband Jake and two wonderful Grandchildren, Jude & Jennings Hepworth of Princeton Texas. Brother in Law James, Sister in Law Lia and their children Zoey & Emma Donnell of Roanoke Texas.

The world will never be the same without Sandi in it. Your best Tribute to Sandi would be to Live your life to the fullest with a smile on your face, looking for ways to lift others up and make their lives better.
