Sandra Kay Tenorio

Sandra Kay Tenorio, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away on November 1, 2025, in Montgomery, Ohio, at the age of 66. Born on October 9, 1959, in Springfield, Ohio, Sandra lived a life filled with love, joy, and cherished memories.

With a vibrant career in retail management, Sandra embraced each holiday season with unparalleled zest, transforming every celebration into a memorable event. Her home was a haven of warmth, where she showcased her incredible talents as a hostess and cook. Friends and family fondly recall her baking, which brought delight to every gathering, while they also had a good-natured laugh at her consistent ability to burn popcorn, beans, and bacon—a reminder of her human side amidst her remarkable culinary skills.

A passionate traveler, Sandra found joy in exploring especially the beaches, which were always a source of inspiration and relaxation for her. Her penchant for shopping went beyond merely grabbing items; giving to others was a true reflection of her generous spirit. When not indulging in her love for food, Sandra immersed herself in the magical worlds of Harry Potter and Star Wars, nurturing her adventurous imagination.

Sandra's proudest accomplishments were undoubtedly the loving family she created and nurtured. She fiercely defended her daughters, Melissa Portillo, Laura (Vicente) Fernandez, and Dorene (Julian) Davila, exhibiting an unwavering love that transcended any challenges they faced. Her legacy of strength and devotion will forever inspire those she leaves behind.

Sandra is survived by her devoted husband, Roberto Tenorio Guzman, and her cherished grandchildren: Hannah, Haylee, Hayden, and Harlen Portillo; Jonathon and Justin Fernandez; Santana, Alejandra, Monica, Juan, and Armando Davila. Each of these individuals carries a piece of her spirit, ensuring that her love will continue to resonate through the generations.

She is predeceased by her beloved parents, Paul and Dora (nee Fugate) Campbell, and her dear puppies, Maja and Flaco, who surely welcomed her with open paws.

As we remember Sandra, we honor her fierce love, joyful spirit, and the many ways she touched the lives of those around her. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who loved her, forever reminding us to embrace every moment with zeal and to always offer kindness to others.
