Meyer, Sandy (Sandra)
Sandy (Sandra) Meyer, 77 of Scottsdale, Arizona, formerly of Glencoe, Illinois, passed away after a long battle with Hepatitis C. She was a graduate of Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. Sandra met her husband in Michigan City, Indiana and they were married in 1956. Following graduation, they moved to St. Louis, Missouri, where her husband completed his education. They then moved back to the Chicago suburbs where her husband began his practice in Orthopedic surgery. She worked as an office manager for her husband for many years with her business acumen. Sandy was an active sportswoman and enjoyed scuba diving, skiing, sailing, tennis and golf, and in the later years, became an avid bridge player. She was an adventure traveler before the term became popular. Sandy was also actively involved in multiple charities including Keshet, Little City Foundation and a long time member of the Board of Trustees of North Shore Congregation Israel in Glencoe, Illinois. She was the gold standard as a role model for her children and grandchildren, and a rock of strength for the entire family. She is survived by her beloved husband of 58 years, Stuart, her children Bonnie (Rick) Sloan, Bruce (Pam) Meyer, and Stacy (David) Rubens, 9 grandchildren, Brian, Matthew, Alex and Alyssa Sloan, Katie, Nick and Victoria Meyer, and Mark and Jessica Rubens. Graveside funeral services will be held 10:00 a.m., Sunday, August 17, 2014 at Mt. Sinai Cemetery, 24210 N. 68th Street, Phoenix. Memorial contributions may be made in her honor to Department of Hepatology at Mayo Clinic Hospital, Dr. Jorge Rakela's Research Fund, or Little City Foundation, Palatine, Illinois. Rest in peace our beloved Sandy. Arrangements by Sinai Mortuary.

I come from a very large family My mother and father were each one of seven. Ergo, I have a lot of first cousins. Sandy was, by far, my FAVORITE.

I still miss her. I hope she is with Marsha, looking down on all of us.

I will always remember, especially in my heart, my absolutely favorite cousin.

I see you and My Marsha, aliva sholum, in my dreams -- usually in a context of St. Louis.

If Marshas beliefs were correct I'll get to see you both again.

Dear Stuart My sympathy goes out to you and your family. Sandra always seemed to be the rock that held everything together. I always admired her strength and spirit, as someone I looked up to. She touched my life and I'm sure many others. Love Jeff

Dear Stuart, Bonnie, Bruce, Stacy, Ric, Pam, David and all the grandchildren;

It is so hard to lose those we love. We want them back but it is not to be. With Sandy, who lived her life so fully, she leaves behind for all of you a vibrandt trove of stories,memories and history so that she will always be remembered.

Sandy was a generous person and my entire family has been fortunate to have her as a presence in our lives. She treated my parents with kindness, consideration and respect and every single word that they spoke regarding Sandy (and Stuart )was always positve and with great appreciation. Our entire family has wonderful memories of our times with everyone in Lake Geneva.
Sandy was always available to listen and help solve problems, a skill at which she was quite good. She was such a big help to Jeff when he worked for Stuart for more than several years.
Sandy was smart, interesting, hard-working and loving. She was a remarkable and loving wife, mother, grandparent, and friend who put time and effort into all of her activities and us. We are so sorry that she suffered so much at the end of her life.
We consider ourselves fortunate to have known her. Her life truly was a blessing.
Love,
Larry and Leslie(Savage)Feldman
