He is most remembered by his children and grandchildren for his upbeat response to the query, “How are you?” He would respond, even in his hospital bed when he could barely speak, “Wonderful!” and really mean it. Those around him felt that sincerity. Sandy deeply cared about Judaism, and was an active and longtime congregant of The Jewish Center of Princeton. The family requests memorial contributions be made to The Jewish Center.
The funeral will be on Sunday January 7, 10:30 am at Orland’s Memorial Chapel,1534 Pennington Rd, Ewing, NJ.
