Sandra received her Undergraduate Degree from Erskine College and Masters Degree from Furman University. She taught school in Greenville and Anderson Counties until retirement. She then became a substitute teacher at Westside High School for many years. Sandra was a member of First Baptist Church of Anderson, past board member with the Garden Club of South Carolina, and a State Certified judge for flower shows throughout South Carolina.
