Sandra Yvonne Eubanks Shead, age 73, of Carrollton, Georgia passed away Sunday, July 10, 2022. She was born August 12, 1948 in Atlanta, Georgia. Sandra, a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, was the true Proverbs 31 woman. She loved her family, especially her grandbabies, her friends, and all children. She spent her life growing up in Douglas County and was a member of the Douglas County High School Class of 1969. She was a true woman of faith, who loved her church family at Liberty Baptist Church and was lovingly known as “Deaconette”. In her spare time, she loved to travel, especially to the beach. Sandra was a travel agent for Classic Travel and Travel Agents International for over twenty years.
