Sandra Lee (Haughwout) Mull

Reverend, Sandra (Haughwout) Mull was born on April 16,1946 in Norfolk, Virginia to Katherine May Haughwout and Alfred Clifton Haughwout. This past week (09 – 12 - 2024), Sandy left us and went to be with the Lord.

She is survived by her husband Reverend Curtis M. Mull Jr., her sister, Denise Haughwout Rowley of Suffolk, Virginia and four grandchildren Thomas and Kyle Dew, Aaron (Scott) and Ashton (Jordan) Mull, as well as six great grandchildren: Lucas, Alex, Jaxon, Wesley and Samuel Dew, and Brayden Lowe. She was preceded in death by her son Steven Curtis Mull and her daughter Deborah Lynn (Mull) Dew.

She loved life, but a stroke two years ago took away the fun, enjoyment, love that life gives. Slowly her illness began to take her life a little at a time until she was completely dependent for everything. But even that didn’t stop us from remembering and reliving the good old days 60 years of marriage brought us.    

She was always accomplishing things in life she didn’t believe she could do. Early on she discovered she had a sense of business that could not only keep the doors of a video business open but prosperous as well.

Next, she became the front and voice for a local and prosperous real estate company. Whenever anyone called, they wanted to speak to her first. When her job was outsourced to a new state of – the art computer program voice activated answering system that had no feeling of compassion or understanding. From there she moved on to a local successful law firm where she became the front person that always greeted everyone with a smile. Once more she was a success with people and their needs.

But then there was that day she received an invitation from the Lord. And before she realized it, she found herself in Divinity school at Duke University in the Course of Study Program. And from there she went on to pastor churches in the Fayetteville as well as the Rocky Mount Districts until her eventual retirement.

Sandy’s smile and the memory of her voice will continue for those who knew and will always remember her.

Her memorial service will be at Deerfield United Methodist Church on Monday, September 30, 2024 at 2:00 PM.  The Rev Wesley Austin will be officiating.
