Obituary:

Sandy Ann Rowland passed away Friday, Dec. 31, 2021

Sandy was born March 18, 1950 to the late R.C Phillips and Diamond (Pat) Brothers Phillips in Wichita Falls, TX.

She married the love of her life on March 6, 1971. The couple was married 46 years upon his passing March 10, 2017.

Sandy leaves behind to cherish her memory, son Christopher Rowland of HI, daughters, Traci Rowland of Springhill, FL, Donnette Lea Leffler and husband John of Lake Mary, Florida; seven grandchildren and great-grandchildren; brother, Robert Phillips; sisters, Brenda Odom (Tommy) of Wichita Falls, TX, and Patricia Smith (Sam) of Rosenberg, TX. She is also survived by her two fur babies Max and Sweetheart.

Sandy was a devoted wife, always up for the challenge of the moves they made during her husband's career. She was MS. GPS for every town they moved to before GPS was invented. She loved to entertain, especially New Years, Halloween, Easter, and Cinco de Mayo. She was fortunate to attend several super bowls, watch some of the best tennis players in the world, play a little tennis herself, enjoyed fishing on their boat "Options". She was a very smart shopper, always looking for a bargain. We will always cherish just being with her, especially when she would share one of her many "colorful" jokes. She was also well known for her generosity.

The family would like to extend a special thanks to Halifax Hospice in Orange City, Michelle Saucier and her family for their love and support.

Graveside services will be held at 2 pm on Monday, January 10, 2022 in Oaklawn Cemetery.
