Born in Adrian, Sandra was the fourth of five children born to the late Hershel Thomas Carter and Ella Jean Mimbs Carter. She grew up in Adrian and was a graduate of Adrian High School, Class of 1973. After high school, Sandra joined the State of Georgia as a Social Worker, working in the Soperton, Jeffersonville and Haddock offices until the mid 1990s. In 1984, she married Floyd Price. Upon leaving the employ of the state, Sandra became a full-time home-maker, specifically to be a mother to she and Floyd’s daughter, Dana.

At the age of eleven, while taking music lessons, Sandra found that she had a natural ability to play the piano. Since then, she played in many various local churches as the Church Musician and as a special invited performer. In 2005, Sandra and her husband founded “Sandra and Friends”, a gospel music singing group that performed throughout the Southeast to untold thousands of attendees. Whether it be playing at local festivals, opening for other bands such as the Dixie Echoes and the Florida Boys, Sandra was consumed by her love of gospel music, while teaching and entertaining others and sharing her faith. She and Floyd, along with others, were instrumental in the founding of the Safe Harbor Church in Adrian. Mrs. Price is preceded in death by her parents.
