Sandra S. George

Sandra Sue George

83, of Camden, passed away surrounded by her family and friends at McCullough-Hyde Hospital, Wednesday evening, February 14, 2024.

She was born November 3, 1940, in Cincinnati, to the late Wilson and Virginia Faris.

Sandy was a 1958 graduate of Dixon-Israel High School.  She married William Earl George on June 1, 1963, and was a great helpmate, whether it be on the farm or showing horses.  Sandy worked at a dental office for 34 years and was a member of the Camden Beautification Committee.  She was a member of the First Southern Baptist Church in Camden, where she was once very involved.

Sandy was a skilled baker and an artist in the kitchen, transforming simple ingredients into works of delicious treats that brought enjoyment to everyone fortunate enough to taste her creations. Her pies were not just desserts; they were expressions of love that left a lasting impression on those who were lucky to savor them.

However, Sandy's culinary talents were just one facet of her extraordinary personality. Her heart of gold was evident in the countless acts of kindness and generosity she showered upon others. Sandy had an uncanny ability to uplift those around her, offering a comforting presence and a listening ear to anyone in need. Her selflessness was a beacon of light that brightened the lives of all who knew her.

Sandy found immense joy in spending time with friends and family. Her gatherings were filled with laughter, warmth, and the unmistakable aroma of freshly baked pies. These moments created cherished memories that will be forever etched in the hearts of those who shared them with her.

Beyond the kitchen and family gatherings, Sandy found calmness in her yard and garden. The vibrant colors of her flowers mirrored the pleasure she brought into the lives of others. She had a green thumb and a deep connection with nature, turning her garden into a peaceful sanctuary where she could reflect and find comfort.

Sandy was preceded in death by her sister-in-law Shirley (George) Flory, and brother-in-law, John George

In addition to her husband, Earl, Sandy is survived by her son, Curtis (Shelley) George; grandchildren, Kendel George, Steven Pettit, and Mandy Pettit; great grandsons, Parker and Paxton Pettit; and brothers-in-law, Kenny (Patty) George, Keith (Esther) George, Gayle (Vickie) George.

The visitation will be held Monday, February 19 from 10AM to 12PM at First Southern Baptist Church, 35 N. Liberty Street, Camden 45311.  The funeral service will begin at 12PM with Pastor Greg Jackson officiating.  Burial will follow at Fairmount Cemetery, Camden.
