Sandra L. Ioanna Evans, 75, a resident of Ashley, passed into eternal life on Tuesday evening, November 30, 2021, at her home, with her loving daughter at her side.

Born on May 11, 1946, in Wilkes-Barre, Sandra was the daughter of the late Peter and Ida (Taylor) Ioanna.

Raised in Plains Township, Sandy was a graduate of the former Plains Memorial High School, Class of 1964.

Prior to her retirement, Sandy was employed for 25 years by the former Carter Footwear, Inc., Parsons section of Wilkes-Barre. After retirement, she worked various part-time jobs, most notably at Bedwick & Jones Printing, Inc., Hanover Township.

Sandy was known for her bubby personality and her ability to socialize with anyone. She had a great love for animals, and she cherished each of the dogs she had over the years. She enjoyed going to yard sales with her sister, Evelyn, and her daily phone calls with her niece, Denise, who sang to Sandy every day.

Above all, Sandy will be best remembered for the abounding love she had for each of her loved ones, most especially her granddaughter, Kaelee, who was the light of Sandy’s life! Although her presence will be missed beyond measure, her beautiful spirit will live on forever in the hearts of her family and friends.

In addition to her parents, Peter and Ida Ioanna, Sandy was preceded in death by her husband, David J. Evans, who passed away on March 05, 2017; her brothers, Alva and Ernest Jones; and her sister, Shirley Jones Layaou.
