Beloved wife, mother, and daughter, Sandra Lou Cox, 64, was born in Houston, Texas to parents B.J. and Rose Marie Springs on December 6, 1949. She passed away on December 2, 2014 in Bakersfield, California.
Sandy graduated with honors from Ebbert L. Furr High School in 1967. Sandy met her late husband Greg while both worked at Brown and Root and they married in 1976. Sandy was a passionate volunteer, spending much of her time at her children’s schools and later with Via Arté of the Bakersfield Museum of Art. More than anything Sandy delighted in the many close friendships formed throughout her life.
Sandy enjoyed traveling, working in her yard and spending time with her friends. She was an avid reader and movie enthusiast, and like her husband was a two-step legend. Sandy’s infectious laugh, optimism, and larger than life personality made her a joy to be around. Her generosity, kindness, and love will be greatly missed.
Sandy is survived by her daughter, Shanna and husband Chris Young; son, Shea and wife April; mother, Rose Marie Springs; brother, Russell Springs; niece Heather Springs; nephew Jason Springs; and many cousins. Sandy is predeceased by her husband Greg and her father B.J. Springs.
The family would like to thank Sandy’s many friends and family for their support and kindness during this difficult time.
