Sandra Clifford

Sandra E. Clifford, 90, of Linton, passed away peacefully at 9:36 a.m. on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, at Autumn Trace, surrounded by the love and presence of her children. Born on Valentine's Day, February 14, 1936, in Bicknell, Sandra was the cherished daughter of Irvin and Florence (Kettelhut) Telligman. Her Valentine's Day birth seemed fitting for someone whose life was defined by love - love for her family, her faith, her work, and the simple blessings she found in each day. Sandra attended Freelandville High School and married the love of her life, M. Wayne Clifford, on August 30, 1952. Together they built a life centered on family and raised three children: Teresa, Elizabeth, and Thomas. Sandra and Wayne shared many years of marriage, memories, and devotion before his passing. For 30 years, Sandra was a dedicated employee of General Electric in Linton. She was proud of her work and valued the friendships and sense of purpose it brought to her life. Her loyalty, steady nature, and quiet strength were qualities that those who knew her admired. Sandra's faith remained an important part of her life. She was a member of Saron United Church of Christ and, in her later years, attended Lincoln Christian Church alongside family. She found comfort in her faith and in the fellowship of her church communities. Above all else, Sandra loved being a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend. She found joy in tending her garden, losing herself in a good book, and - most especially - spending time with the people she loved. Her family will remember her warm presence, her devotion, and the many ways she made those around her feel cared for. Sandra is survived by her children, Teresa (Tarry) Egnew, Elizabeth (Cody) Alsman, and Thomas (Jeanine) Clifford; grandchildren, Travis (Heather) Egnew, Tera (Alex) Knepp, Tracee (Nick) Dixon, Trista (Beau) Baker, Lacey (Lee) McDonald, Breann Alsman, Garrett Alsman, Lauren (Mark) Gardner, Brynne (Travis) Wilkerson, and Taryn (Luke) Jennings; grandson-in-law, Brad Dodson; 23 great-grandchildren; and her brother, William (Kim) Telligman. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, M. Wayne Clifford; her parents, Irvin and Florence Telligman; granddaughter, Tomi Dodson; son-in-law, William Staisch; and siblings, Wayne Tellingman, Marylin Luehrman, and Terrance Telligman. Sandra leaves behind a family deeply grateful for the love, guidance, and example she gave throughout her long life. Though she will be greatly missed, her legacy lives on in the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren who were blessed to call her Mom, Grammy, and Great-Grammy. A private family graveside service will be held at Bethel Cemetery in Freelandville, with Cliff Gano officiating. Arrangements are in care of Welch & Cornett Funeral Home in Linton, of Walton Funeral Service. Online condolences may be shared with the family at www.welchcornett.com.
