IN THE CARE OF
Singing Hills Funeral Home
Wanda Kaye Sampson Pruitt was born on March 26, 1954, in Dallas Texas to Jimmy and Susie Mae Sampson. She was educated in DISD Public Schools and graduated from Woodrow Wilson, Class of 1972.
Wanda Kaye accepted Christ and knew Him as her personal Lord and Savior. She served God and Greater Mt. Sinai on the Usher Board for over 40 years and also served as the Usher Board President until her health began to fail. It’s been said that Wanda Kaye would greet you as you entered the sanctuary with a huge smile and a bit of correction if you showed up tardy or missed too many Sundays. It wasn’t uncommon to catch her dancing during a good gospel song or on the usher board annual day straight down the middle aisle. She served The Lord’s House according to Psalms 84: 9-12.
Wanda Kaye worked just short of 40 Years at Texas Instruments before retiring. Then decided to rejoin the work force by driving children to school for DISD for a few years, even the children called her granny just like her very own grandchildren. Moma met no strangers, always had a big smile, loud laughter and a crazy comment or two to make you laugh, could entertain a whole room and loved her family endlessly. If you wanted to dance, she’d be your partner and even danced with a community group, Divas and Dudes. You could always find her playing bingo, dominos with her boy cousins, nephews or grandsons and its been said she’s taken down a few good deacons at the church picnics.
Wanda Kaye was proceeded in death by her parents, Jimmy and Susie Mae and all of her siblings: L.D. Mackey Jr, Tommy Lee Mackey Sr., Stella Louise Wren, Amanda Joyce Gibson and Kenneth Ray Sampson.
Mrs. Wanda Kaye Sampson-Pruitt went home to be with her Lord very early December 9th, 2022 after battling Multiple Myeloma with all of the strength, tenacity and even glimpses of her big beautiful smile and laughter.
