Sandra Lee Collins

Sandra Lee Collins: Beloved Mother, Mimi, Sister, Aunt and friend passed away on February 21st at the age of 69. Born 1955 in Oklahoma City she grew into a person full of love and genuine appreciation for family and friends. In 1972, she was drawn to Texas where she would spend the rest of her life, raising her family and creating lifelong friendships. 

As a strong woman she broke barriers, earning countless awards and recognition throughout her career. Her dedication and talents didn't go unnoticed, receiving an invitation to join the Dallas Cowboys organization as a cheerleader, but instead choosing to work in the press box, given her priority to family.

It cannot be understated the love for her family on Lake Vilbig where she was elected the first Vilbig Bass Club President. 

With a passion for life, she enjoyed gardening, cooking, traveling, and making memories with family and friends brought her the greatest joy. She married the love of her life, Michael Collins in 1999, and together they created a beautiful life filled with warmth and laughter.

Sandra is survived by her beloved husband, children, sister, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and great grandchildren and too many friends to count. 

A visitation will be held at Chism-Smith Funeral Home, located at 403 South Britain Road, Irving, TX 75060, on March 3, 2025, from 5:00 PM until 7:00 PM. In lieu of flowers please make memorial contributions to TUNNEL TO TOWERS.

Sandra Lee Collins leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion, and cherishing moments spent with those she adored. She will be dearly missed by everyone who had the honor of knowing her. May her contribution of love, compassion, empathy be passed through all that Knew her for generations to come.
