Sandra Kay Battle, age 82 of Woodstown.
Kay has left this Earthly life to live eternally in Heaven with Jesus and all her loved ones who have gone before her.
She passed peacefully, after a brief illness, with her loving family by her side.
Kay, daughter of Earl K. and Edith (Wright) Johnson, graduated from Woodstown High School in 1959. She was married in 1960 to her high school sweetheart Charles (Bub) Battle. They were married for 64 fun loving years until the time of her passing. Kay was the loving mother to her two children Scott and Denise. Kay’s Family and Children and eventually Grandchildren were her # 1 priority.  She could be found cheering from the bleachers anytime her kids took the court or the field.  Kay loved her sports teams!  She was a long time Eagles season ticket holder.  She enjoyed her Sundays tailgating with Irv and Lamita Smith and cheering at Vet Stadium and later The Linc. Whether it be the Eagles, Phillies or the Flyers, Kay was always ready to cheer on her team.
Kay enjoyed a 30 year career at The Woodstown National Bank where she worked her way up the ladder, eventually becoming the Chief Loan Officer and ultimately Vice President of the bank. Kay was a devoted employee and a very much loved fixture at Woodstown National.
Kay loved to entertain. The Battle house was known for the annual clambake, countless pool parties, and holiday celebrations.  Kay was always ready to host, the more the merrier and boy were they merry!
Kay thoroughly enjoyed her time spent with her Grandchildren.  Swimming in her pool and eventually summers in Wildwood.  And true to form, the more the merrier.
Kay enjoyed wintering in Florida with a large group of their Woodstown friends.
Kay and her girlfriends have enjoyed playing cards together in their monthly “Card Club” for over 60 years.  Kay valued her friendships, most of which were formed in high school and have lasted her lifetime.
Kay was a great daughter, sister, wife, mother and a friend to all who knew her.
She was known for her devotion to her family, her beauty and grace, and will be missed by all.
Kay is survived by her husband of 64 years, Charles M. Battle Jr. (Bub), her son and daughter-in -law Scott and Maryann Battle; her daughter Denise & John Quisito; her grandchildren Michael (Tara) Quisito, Liza (Jesse) Quisito Eisenhart, Alex Battle, Nick Battle and Julia Weisel; her great grandchildren, Giovanni, Giuliana, Harper, Avi, Levi, Lux and Malachi; and her brother and sister-in-law Wayne and Mary Johnson.

“When I come to the end of the road, and the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom filled room, why cry for a soul set free?  Miss me a little, but not for long, and not with your head bowed low, remember the love that once we shared, miss me, but let me go.  For this is a journey we all must take, and each must go alone.  It’s all part of the master plan, a step on the road to home.  When you are lonely and sick at heart, go to the friends we know.  Laugh at all the things we used to do, miss me, but let me go.”
