Sandra Jean Shaw of Redmond, WA, died February 14, 2019 at the age of 81 after bravely facing cancer. She was born April 8, 1937, in Yakima, WA. Sandy's parents were Bobbie and Jerry Russell.
Sandy attended Yakima High School but was lured away from her small-time roots to the Pasadena Playhouse. There she indulged her passions of acting and singing. Although stardom escaped her, she spent her life singing, having been a Sweet Adeline for over 50 years.
Sandy worked throughout her life as a Customer Service Representative for many airlines, a great job for her as her greatest asset was being cheerful.
Sandy will be greatly missed by her partner Barbara McCormick's children Viki, Michael, Gayle and Kit, six grandchildren and a great-grandson.
A celebration will be held at the Sammamish Forest Manors Clubhouse on Sunday, February 24, at 1:00pm. Memorial donations may be made to Pasadena Playhouse Alumni Fund.
