Sandra "Sandy" L. Goldberg

Sandra (Sandy) L. Goldberg (née Levey), 85, of Oreland, PA, died peacefully June 11, 2022, after succumbing to complications from gallbladder cancer, just 12 days shy of marking 59 years of marriage. Beloved wife of Stanley G. Goldberg, devoted mother of Dara Goldberg Kaye (Jonathan) and Ross Goldberg, adoring grandmother of Daniel, and loving aunt. Sandy was preceded in death by her grandson, Eli, and her sister, Charlotte (Lehman).

Raised on the Boulevard in Philadelphia, Sandy graduated from Olney High School in 1954 and Temple University in 1958, then taught at the Whittier Elementary School for several years. 

The family moved from Roxborough, where they lived above Stanley’s solo dental practice, to Oreland, in Springfield Township, in 1969. She joined her husband as the office receptionist in the mid 1970s, but remained involved in her children’s schooling and activities.

She also pursued her own interests in cooking, needlepoint, and reading, among others. Generations of dental patients expressed appreciation of Sandy’s warm welcome and genuine interest in their lives and families. Sandy and Stan retired in 2009.

In recent years, Sandy enjoyed time with her grandson; her dog, Buddy; and her “grand dogs,” and was a devoted follower of current events and pop-culture news.

Private services will be held. Family and friends are invited to the Goldberg Residence Wednesday, June 15 at 12:30 P.M.

Donations in her memory may be made to Best Friends, The Humane Society of the United States, the ASPCA, the Montgomery County SPCA, or the animal rescue organization of your choice.
