DENFORD C. SANDERS

EASTON, Ky. — Denford C. Sanders, 71, of Easton, Ky., went to be with the Lord on Saturday, Feb. 20, 2021, with family and friends by his side.  Denford was born Aug. 28, 1949, to the late Herman C. Sanders and Myrtle Richards Sanders. He was a Navy veteran.  Denford’s life was his logging career of 33 years. He loved working alongside his brothers, his kids and nephews. He loved being in the woods. Denford served on Hancock County School Board for 11 years, where he enjoyed every minute.  He enjoyed working with the kids.  

Denford loved going to Fordsville helping Michael Upchurch work on vehicles at the garage with his grandson, Seth. He loved fishing and hunting.  He loved coon hunting, and had his favorite dog, Spot.  He loved this time with his kids and grandkids. Denford had many memories with family and friends. One of his favorites was with his friend (who he considered a brother), Jerry Daughtery, where they went fishing and Jerry’s coat got hung on the boat trailer and Denford pulled him into the water.  Another one was when they forgot to unhook the boat.
