SANDRA KAY MOORE

Sandra “Sandy” Kay Moore was born on August 2, 1940, to Willard and Virgie (Freeman) Moore in the small coalmining town of Derby, Virginia. Sandra was full of love and laughter, vivacious, strong, intelligent, beautiful, and she was never afraid of hard work.

She is preceded in death by her brother Howard Moore, and her parents, Willard and Virgie Moore. Sandra is survived by her loving partner, Ronald “Dean” McQuery; daughters, Donna (Bob) Giles, Pam (Jim) Norris, Sheri (Scott) Marcus, Kelly Giles, and Stacey (Rob) Williams; grandchildren, David Kelly Rader, Jordan (Jeremiah) Hammond, Matt Norris, Nick (Julie) Norris, and Emily Carnder; and great-grandchildren, Keegan and Lylah Hammond, and John and Vivian Norris. 

 To her family, she was lovingly known as “Rarah”—never “grandma” or any variations of it. Sandra loved her family and friends, traveling, making jewelry, and spending her time volunteering for the American Cancer Society, the local food bank, and Ripley First Presbyterian Church, among many others.

Visitation and memorial service at 12:00 p.m. at Ripley First Presbyterian Church, 114 Mulberry Street, Ripley, OH 45167. Celebration of Life to follow in the church dining hall. In lieu of flowers, please make any donations to the Ripley First Presbyterian Church.
