Sandy Drake, 63, of Williamsburg, VA passed away on September 4, 2026. Born in New Jersey on March 27, 1963, she was preceded in death by her mom, Ann Gautreaux.
Sandy enjoyed shopping, cooking, hallmark movies, and spending time with family. She could make the best dishes out of what seemed to be nothing and would not write down the recipe. Sandy especially loved Halloween and Christmas. She would go Christmas shopping all year and loved picking out personalized gifts. Sandy also loved having sleepovers with her three grandkids. She would be the first call for birthdays and the first day of school to all her loved ones.
She is survived by her daughters, Samantha Brown (Quinton Brown Jr.) and Danielle Drake (Hannah Drake); grandchildren, Kian Brown, Avery Brown, and Kace Brown; her father, Stanley Iwanski; siblings, Joanie Thomas (Floyd), Sonny Iwanski (Roni), Gloria Gautreaux (Kyle), and Tracey Mansisidor (J); as well as many beloved family and friends.
