Sandra Joan Stranger (1948 – 2026)
Born in the heart of Somerset on November 29th, 1948, Sandra Joan Stranger lived a life rooted in family, hard work, and the simple beauty of nature. To those who knew her best, Sandra was a woman of tradition, kindness, and an iron-willed spirit that stayed with her until the very end.
Sandra’s journey took her from the busy floors of the Clarks shoe factory in her youth to the demanding role of Hotel Manager at the Langport Arms. However, her true "work of love" was always found among flowers. As a trained florist, she had a gift for bringing beauty into the world, a passion that spilled over into her own cherished garden and her long, peaceful walks.
Beyond her career, Sandra’s world revolved around her husband, Richard, and her two sons, Gary and Thomas. But perhaps her favorite role of all was being "Nana" to Bethany, Martha, and Samuel. She adored her grandchildren, famously spending time (and money!) ensuring they felt loved and spoiled. A quintessential Somerset lady, she was happiest browsing the aisles of Marks & Spencer or enjoying a quiet moment in their cafe.
While the last seven years brought a monumental challenge following a major stroke, Sandra remained a fighter. Though the illness changed her life and her personality, her family stood by her through every battle. We choose now to remember the Sandra who was polite, impeccably dressed, "stuck in her ways" in the most endearing way, and above all, deeply devoted to those she loved.
