A local soldier who was killed in the line of duty overseas will be remembered Saturday during a funeral service in her native Waycross, Georgia.
Army Sgt. Sanders, 24, will be laid to rest Saturday after a public viewing Friday at C.C. McCray City Auditorium
That route is designed to carry Sanders past her Waycross home on Eads Street before ending at Fluker Funeral Home on Ossie Davis Parkway. Waycross officials have announced that a section of Eads Street will be renamed Kennedy L. Sanders Way, and June 30 will be known as “Kennedy L. Sanders Day.”. President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden were at Dover Air Force Base earlier this month to witness the return of Sanders and the two other Georgia soldiers killed in that strike.
