She is survived by her loving husband of over 37 years, William H.

Sandy was the youngest of six children. She is preceded in death by brother Maurice Neighbors, sisters Katherine "Kaki" Plemmons, Betty Penland, Carolyn Lindsey and survived by sister Martha "Myrt" Brown and her husband Wilfred. She is also leaving cherished memories to her many nieces, nephews, cousins, and an abundance of loving and faithful friends.
