Kalene E. Sanderson

It is with profound sadness that the family of Kalene E. Sanderson, 26, of Auburn announces her sudden passing on Tuesday, March 24, 2020.

Kalene was born and raised in Auburn, NY and graduated from Auburn High School class of 2012.

Kalene was a beautiful soul who had a wonderful sense of humor and an infectious smile. She had a kind and loving nature that extended to her love of animals. Kalene was extremely selfless, always putting others before herself. Her charismatic personality and unfailing optimism drew people in and she always managed to see the best in everyone.

Kalene will be forever remembered by her loving parents Cynthia and William Sanderson; her sister, Jolene Sanderson-Young and brother-in-law Sean, and nephews Alex Coomber and Brett Sanderson; her brother William Sanderson, Jr. and sister-in-law Michelle, and nephews William Sanderson III, Kenny Sanderson and Michael Sanderson; and her brother Nathan Sanderson.

Those who knew Kalene, even just a little, lost a shining light in their lives. She will be deeply missed.

At this time there will be no public calling hours due to COVID-19. The family will announce a memorial service at a later date. In lieu of flowers the family asks that you make donations to your local animal shelters in Kalene’s name. Arrangements are with White Chapel Funeral Home Inc., Auburn.
