Sandra Lynn Laird "Sandy", 79, took the hand of Jesus and entered into eternal rest on July 29, 2022. After nearly a year of fighting pancreatic cancer, her battle-scarred body finally had all it could take, and she "fell asleep" around 7 AM at the Memorial Hermann Hospital in The Woodlands.
Sandy was born as the youngest of three girls and two boys on January 30, 1943, in Galveston, Texas, to Joseph F. Kitchen and Doris (Hibbard) Kitchen. Sandy was in the first graduating class of 1961 at South Houston High School. Sandy found the love of her life through a blind date, and on January 8, 1962, they became one. In August 1965 they adopted their only son. Sandy worked for the U.S. Federal Government for over 20 years and retired as a Government Contracting Officer and Negotiator. Sandy traveled with her husband to places all over the world – 74 different countries to be exact, and lived in 4 of them. Their last overseas assignment was for 7 years in Tokyo, Japan. During this time, Sandy became a very popular model, singer and television actress – she was adored by everyone from Japan all the way down to New Zealand.
Sandy is preceded in death by her parents, brother Mel Wayne "Skeegie" Kitchen, and her two sisters, Betty Thibodeaux and Joyce "Bobbie" Moncebaiz.
Sandy is survived by her loving husband of 60 years, her son and his wife, her brother and his wife, a brother-in-law, a sister-in-law, an aunt, and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family members.
Graveside services were on Thursday, August 4, 2022 at 11 am at the Oklahoma Cemetery located in south Montgomery County, Magnolia, Texas, between Tomball and The Woodlands.
Everything Sandy did, she did with love. Every place she went, every person she touched, was made more beautiful just by her being there. The world is a much better place now because she was here, and her beauty and love will remain a part of so many hearts forever.
