Sandra Weston

Madison.

Our mother, Sandra Joyce Fereshetian Weston, born February 27, 1950, passed away unexpectedly the morning of Friday April 17th at home surrounded by her family. She was born in Massachusetts to Helen Craig Fereshetian and Richard Fereshetian. Her entire life she loved music. A drummer, she was in an all girls band in high school called “What’s This…Madness?” She loved animals and was a life long cat lover especially. She was a talented fiber artist. 

She is survived by her husband of thirty eight years and one day, Thomas, and six children Joshua, Noah, Heidi, Burke, Hannah, and Melanie. There were many children she didn’t birth, but loved and was proud of like her own. She had four grandchildren, Jonah, Bird, Alice, and Isabel She constantly lamented not being able to travel to visit her grandchildren and was incredibly proud of them. She also is survived by her sisters Claire, Pam, and Wendy as well as many nephews and nieces. During her time working for the Anson school district, she made many life long friends and loved being able to work with young people. She loved teaching kids about the arts and was proud to have introduced the civil rights program to Garrett Schenk school.

Our mom was many things to many people. A musician, an artist, an educator, an advocate for those who didn’t have one or those who needed one, a farmer, a political warrior who stood out and up against anything she deemed not right, a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a mom, and most importantly a friend. There will be no formal services at this time but the family plans to hold a gathering in the coming months.
