December 1, 2023
Sandra (Sandy) Lee Hane Spivey Whitfield, born December 30, 1962 went home to be with our Lord on November 27, 2023. Sandy was born in Columbus, Ohio to Nelson and Betty Hane Sr. Sandy moved to Florida as a young child where she married and had her daughter, Kelly Marie. Sandy was a stay-at-home mother and home maker for many years. Later in life connection brought her to marry Douglas Whitfield Jr. and she became a second mother to Bryan, Whitney and Brett Whitfield. Sandy spent several years in the painting business with the best teacher, her husband Douglas. She moved on to prepping and finishing out cabinets with her work husband, Doug Mott. She spent her final years caring for her husband before his death, all while putting up the biggest fight against cancer. She gave it her all and fought till the end.
Sandy loved her life, her family, God, cooking and her dogs. She loved being a memaw to ALL the kids. It didn’t matter if they were blood or not, she was THE MEMAW. Her door was always open and there would always be a home cooked meal waiting. If you didn’t get a chance to learn how to make dumplins, homemade pizzas or any one of her many great meals, then you missed out!! She loved her nights out with the girls playing Bunco. She loved her days spent on the river bank with her family and friends, Alabama football, and gardening and tending to her flowers. Most of all she loved being a Memaw!
