My late father always had a very special place in his heart for his niece and I understand why. Sandy was such a fun big cousin. Despite our age difference (I was about 4 when she got married) and of course the geographic separation as she and Jerry lived so often in far-away states, I always cherished the times when we could all be together. I remember most when I lived with the Bard family for a week when they lived in Stamford, CT and getting to play the role of "older cousin" to the kids. Shortly after Ilene and I got married Sandy and Jerry invited us to "double-date" and we went and played tennis at an indoor club they belonged to. Fortunately I got to see her just a few months ago, bumping into each other at the Regal Theatre.
I will miss you.
Love,
Larry Schneider
