SANDRA LOU GREY
Sandra Lou Sutton was originally named Jorretta Ann Cox, born to Dona Ethel Cox, on December 1, 1944 at Peoples Hospital in Akron, Ohio. Shortly after her birth, she was adopted, raised, and loved by Clyde and Ida Sutton (Greissing). She resided in Ohio until her marriage to Roger Grey. They eventually settled and divorced in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Later, Sandi moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado to be closer to family.
Sandi is survived by her children: Mariann (Kenneth) Rosenquest of Florida, Thomas (Carmen) Grey of Illinois, and Jennifer (Sean) White of Colorado; her grandchildren: December (Royal), Billy, Drew, Anna, Sammy, Sarah, Claire, Ella, Alex, Carter, and great grandson, Micah; her aunt: Ella Mae Sutton; and many cousins and friends.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a memorial service will be held at a later time.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to one of the following organizations very close to Sandi's heart:
Illinois Valley Young Life: Young Life, P.O. Box 83, Princeton, IL 61356
Safe Place For Pets: 1520 N. Hancock Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80903
Sisters of St Francis Companion Retreat Fund, 7665 Assisi Heights, Colorado Springs, CO 80919
Time spent with her own family, church family, personal devotion and quiet time, and her relationship with Jesus was an enormous part of Sandi's life. She believed in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."
