It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Sandra Sanderson Fraley on December 5, 2024, at age 82. Sandra was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, sister and friend.

Sandra was a native and resident of Shady Spring, WV where she was born to Edith and Edward Sanderson on September 23, 1942.  She graduated from Shady Spring High School in 1960 as salutatorian of her class.

Sandra was a skilled musician and dedicated over 40 years to serving as a church organist and pianist at Perry Memorial United Methodist Church. Known for her devotion to her church, she volunteered tirelessly with the church women's group and education programs. She loved growing violets and peonies and cooking for her family and church.
