On Friday, January 4, 2019, God in his infinite spirit and wisdom carried Tamika Anita Sanders to dwell with him in their eternal home of Peace, Love and Tranquility. Tamika was born December 17, 1974 to Archie Sanders and the late Virgie Madgalene Jones Sanders in Smithfield, NC. Tamika was the third child of five children and the only daughter.
Meecie was a 1993 graduate of Smithfield Selma Sr. High in Smithfield, NC. She was also a graduate of Johnston Community College in Smithfield NC where she earned her Associate Degree. Meecie was employed by ARS in Cary NC and also Belks of Smithfield, NC. Meecie was an inspiration to everyone and never met a stranger. She was a loving and giving person just like her beloved late mother, Virgie Madgalene.
Meecie was a loving and caring mother and grandmother. She was a great supporter of her children and the Smithfield-Selma Sr. High School Athletic Department. She traveled with the Football, Basketball, and Track Teams to all away games or meets and made her presence known with her "megaphone" which was in desperate need of repair.
Meecie confessed salvation because she realized the need of a savior in her life. She united with New Generation Church in Smithfield, NC under the leadership of Apostle Addie M. Harris Rawls.
