Saundra Kay

Lee

Saundra Kay Lee (Williams), born on April 26, 1964, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, was a hardworking, strong-willed, and outspoken woman whose presence helped hold her family together through life’s challenges. She was the daughter of Vern “Sonny” Williams and Mary Lou Mauldin (Williamson), and a devoted mother whose greatest accomplishment was raising her three sons.

Saundra was the glue that kept her household running through everything life brought her way. She showed her love not always through words, but by being present, lending a helping hand, and making sure the people she cared about knew they could count on her. She was a woman who worked hard, stood her ground, and faced life with determination. Her family was at the center of her world, and the love she gave through her presence and dependability will remain a lasting part of the lives she touched.

For more than 30 years, Saundra dedicated herself to Little Giant Pump Company, where she built a reputation as a dependable employee and a natural leader. She took great pride in her work and retired after more than three decades of service. Her commitment and strong work ethic reflected the kind of person she was someone who showed up, worked hard, and could be counted on.

Outside of work, Saundra enjoyed the simple things that made life special: watching television, enjoying great food, and spending time with her family during the holidays. Some of her most cherished traditions were the holidays spent at her grandmother Williams’ house, creating memories and maintaining family connections that meant so much to her. Those gatherings represented the importance she placed on family and the traditions that brought everyone together.

Saundra also had a special love for animals. She had a heart for strays, welcoming them into her home and treating them like her own children. Her beloved pet Buddy was her best pal and held a particularly special place in her heart. Her compassion for animals was another reflection of the love she had to give.

Above all, Saundra was proud of her three sons and the family she raised. Her life was defined by hard work, perseverance, loyalty, and a love that showed itself in the everyday things she did for those around her. Though she could be stubborn and outspoken, those who knew her understood that she was a woman with a strong spirit and a presence that could not be replaced.

In a deeply meaningful coincidence, Saundra passed away on October 16, 2026, exactly 17 years after the passing of her beloved mother. Though the loss of a mother leaves an ache that words cannot fully express, her family can find comfort in their Christian faith and in the enduring love and memories Saundra leaves behind.

Saundra was preceded in death by her father, Vern “Sonny” Williams; her mother, Mary Lou Mauldin (Williamson); her brother, Vern “Butch” Williams; and her ex-husband, Paul Lee.

She is survived by her sister, Marilyn; her brother, Harold Williams; her children, Johnathan Lee and daughter-in-law Christal Hargis, Richard Lee, and Michael Lee and daughter-in-law Emalyn O’Dell; and her beloved grandsons, Tristan Lee, Deacon Hargis, and Hudson Hargis.

Though Saundra’s presence will be deeply missed, the lessons she taught through her hard work, the strength she demonstrated through life’s challenges, and the love she showed by always being there will live on through her family. Her legacy is not measured only in years, but in the family, she raised, the lives she touched, and the memories that will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved her.

Rest peacefully, Saundra. You will always be loved, forever remembered, and never forgotten.
