Patricia was full of personality, laughter, and life. She loved Jesus and her family more than anything. She found joy in making others smile. As the wife of former business owner Tommy Vansandt of Vansandt Hardware, she spent many days behind the counter spreading sunshine. She was the best Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Aunt, Cousin, Friend, and Auburn Fan that you could ask for. While our hearts are broken here on Earth, she has found true peace and celebration with her loved ones in heaven. We will forever long to be reunited.
“But as God calls us by one. The chain will link again.”
