Sandy Pulley Ford

Sandy Pulley Ford, raised in Stonewall, Mississippi, and a resident of Mobile, Alabama, passed away on Monday, May 01, 2023. She was 76 years old.  

Sandy gave great veneration to the Lord and exemplified this profound admiration and respect through Bible Study and praise. She could best be described as resembling or befitting an angel serving the Lord and had a smile that warmed the hearts and souls of all who were blessed to have known her. Sandy enjoyed being a participant of Mercy Life for the Elderly and was also very passionate about charity. She was benevolent in every aspect to the act of giving. Sandy was known as “The Prayer Warrior” at Mercy Life. She absolutely loved butterflies, and everyone called her “The Butterfly Lady”. Overall, Sandys most cherished moments were spending time with her beautiful and loving family. Her memory will forever be a reminder to show great acts of kindness, love, and joy, and she will be missed by many whose lives she touched.
