" You could say she crammed a lot of life in her 73 years"! Sandy intensely lived and passionately loved the people in her life. Sandra Louise Acker went home to be with her heavenly Father on December 31, 2022. Sandy passed in peace and leaves behind many to cherish her memory. A one-of-a-kind woman, Sandy is survived by her husband Steve, daughter Kimberly (Kurt) Krause of Raleigh, two very special grandchildren Keeghan and Kellyn, sister Marla of Raleigh, her dog Kira, and many caring friends. The family especially wants to thank her loving caregiver Morgan Moore. Sandy was born and raised in Michigan living most of her life in Lansing, moving to North Carolina 22 years ago.
Sandy was a member of Hanks Chapel UCC, loved attending there, she had a special talent for decorating her houses to make everyone who visited feel a special part of her home, she loved chocolate ice cream, going to Virlie's, and visiting with friends and family. Sandy knew no strangers. She'll certainly be missed. In keeping with her wishes, Sandy was cremated.
The family is being served by Donaldson Funeral Home and Crematory of Pittsboro, NC. Arrangements are yet to be finalized; a memorial service is being planned for spring - the season of life. Godspeed, beloved Sandy."
