Sandra Lou Carraway was born November 28, 1957 in West Monroe to the union of her parents, Richard Preston Carraway and Gladys Thompson Carraway and passed from this life September 6, 2024 peacefully at her residence in Olla.

Sandy was preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Dewayne Carraway. Those left to cherish her memory are her son, Cody Carraway (Krisi); daughter, Keesha Halliburton (Patrick Francis); brother, Dennis Carraway; sister, Brenda Jeffers (Leon); grandchildren, Addison Carraway, Dustin Meredith; and great-grandchild, Hadleigh Meredith. 

Sandy was a mother, sister, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She was her children's, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren's biggest fan and loved them unconditionally. Sandy was a homebody and a slight worry wart but had a remarkable talent in writing. She filled up notebooks after notebooks, just writing. Sandy enjoyed sitting outside, sewing, and word search puzzles.

Pallbearers will include Dustin Meredith, Bart Meredith, Cody Carraway, Dennis Carraway, Glynn Black, Josh Cockerham, Patrick Francis, and Jacob Ayers.
