*****TIME CHANGE OF FUNERAL*****

Georgetown, SC

Linda Lou Knight Sandoe died Monday, December 11, 2023 in Pawleys Island, surrounded by her family.

Born in 1938 in Washington, D.C. to Audrey Norbury and John E. Knight, Linda worked as a legal secretary before marrying William E. Oberst in 1958 and relocating to Georgetown, S.C. Married for 30 years, they raised three children and started and ran a successful business together. At age 70 she reconnected with her Jr. High School sweetheart, Paul W. Sandoe, who she married in 2009 on her 71st birthday. They enjoyed nearly 15 happy years together in Georgetown.

Linda was of strong Christian faith and she lived and demonstrated it every day. Baptized an Episcopalian, she was a member of All Saints Church in Pawleys Island, S.C. and Wayne Methodist Church and Victory Christian Fellowship in Georgetown. Linda loved to sing in church - her beautiful voice could be heard above those around her - always with a big smile on her face.

She was immensely proud of her children and grandchildren, and doted on them every chance she got. Linda was known for her generosity and thoughtfulness, and found no greater pleasure than doing for others.

Linda is survived by her loving husband Paul, her children Patricia (Patsy) Oberst Whitney of Union, S.C., William E. Oberst, Jr. of Pawleys Island and Michael Alan Oberst of Georgetown and their spouses, her grandsons Michael David Oberst of New York, N.Y. and William English Whitney III of Columbia, S.C. and their spouses, her great-grandchild, William English Whitney, IV, her sister-in-law, Loretta Knight, her nieces and nephews John Knight, George Knight, and Janet Lee of Delaware and Maryland, and her step-daughters Debbie Bruce and Janet Brown of Virginia.

She was predeceased by her parents and her brother, John W. Knight.
