Obituary -- Sandra Patricia Moreno Trotter

June 15, 1974 – September 22, 2022
Obituary -- Sandra Patricia Moreno Trotter
Sandra Trotter

Sandra passed away unexpectedly on September 22, 2022.  She was born in Cosamaloapan, Veracruz, Mexico to Victoria Gomes Gallardo and Josafat Moreno Torres of San Andres Tuxtla, Veracruz, Mexico.  Sandra moved to Fallon at 16 in 1991 and worked many different jobs including cleaning, child care and harvesting crops.  She learned English and attended Churchill County High School, got her GED and enjoyed attending Western Nevada College. 

Sandra met her husband, Ben, in 1995 when she waited tables on the night shift at Jerry’s Restaurant and when he got distracted from his workouts to talk to her at the daycare in the old 4-Way-Fitness Center.  They married in October 1996 and the marriage ceremony was held in June 1997.  Sandra worked many years as a personnel manager in the old Walmart and worked for the School District for over fifteen years. 

She loved Jesus, loved to dance, loved to smile and laugh, took great pride in working hard and helping others, and was a wonderful and involved mother of her two daughters, Kyla and Ashby.  They were the highlight of her life.  She departed this life far too soon and is sorely missed.  She will always be in the hearts of those who knew and respected her and loved the beam of sunshine she brought with her wherever she went.  

She is survived by her husband and daughters, her father and mother, and her four siblings, Doris and Lourdes (North Carolina), Victoria (Mexico), and Josafat (Texas), as well as, numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins. 

In lieu of flowers, the Trotter family asks donations be made to Logos Christian Academy of Fallon, NV.  

Services will be held on Saturday,  December 10, 2022, at 11:00 AM at Christian Life Center, 1435 Kaiser St., Fallon, NV.

Sandra was a lady who lit up the room! I am so blessed to have met the lady who was such an amazing partner for my cousin and a wonderful mom to those precious daughters. This sweet family will remain in my prayers.

Sandra was an amazing woman, who I am proud to have known and loved. Her legacy of strength, kindness, and beauty live on through her brilliant daughters and her best friend and husband, Ben. Love you Sandra, and miss you so much.

Praying that the Lord will wrap your family in His loving arms, and shower you all with His tender mercies, which are new every morning. I'm so incredibly sad for your loss.

Sandra was a lovely, caring, and kind person. She helped raise two amazing girls who have become lovely women. She is loved and will be missed.

I always knew her to be a beauty both inside and out. If we ran into each other in a store, I always got a warm, friendly hug. God rest her soul and comfort her family. Linda Hartweg

Sandra was lovely, quick to laugh, and kind. She helped raise two amazing girls who have become equally lovely women. She is loved and will be missed.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
