Sandra Dyan Perkins Holt passed away Jan. 9, 2019, after courageously battling many health issues for several years.
She was born Jan. 31, 1967, to Tom and Darlene Perkins in Tooele, Utah. She lived in Pine Canyon, Utah, until she married LaVell Holt on July 8, 1988. They had two wonderful sons, Tyler LaVell Holt and Matthew R. Holt. They raised their family in South Jordan, Utah, and were later divorced. Sandra moved back to Tooele, where she lived the remainder of her life.
She graduated from Tooele High School and then attended Utah State University. She later became a highly skilled phlebotomist and used her skills and knowledge to train others. She would quite often be teaching techniques to other phlebotomists even when she was the patient.
She was always on the go and wouldn’t let her health issues slow her down. She loved spending time with family and friends, fishing, being outdoors, and was an avid sports fan.
Sandra is survived by her mother; sons; siblings Tom (Susan) Perkins, Deborah (Keith) Davis, Lorna (Ray) Stewart, Patricia (Jeff) Banks; and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her father.
Special thanks for all of the love and tender care given by so many doctors, nurses, many other health professionals, and care-givers over the last several years.
Services will be held Friday, Jan. 18 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1030 S. 900 West, Tooele, at 1 p.m., with a visitation prior to the service from 11:30 a.m. – 12:45 p.m. Interment will be at the Tooele City Cemetery immediately following the services.
