Obituary - SANDRA GORDON

Sandra Gordon of Winter Park, Fla., died on Thursday, Jan. 31, 2013. She was 96 years old.

Mrs. Gordon was born on Sept. 25, 1917 in New York. She was a lifelong resident of New York until moving to Florida more than a decade ago. She was married to Sol Zorn and then to Daniel Gordon, both of whom were in the entertainment industry. She worked in New York City in retail with a specialty in cosmetics. Even in her 90s, she was impeccably well groomed and dressed maintaining her New York City panache, said those who knew her. She was very well known at Winter Park Towers by both the staff and residents as a cheerful, outgoing person with a great sense of humor and an avid bingo player. She did award-winning needlepoint portraits and flowers.

Mrs. Gordon is survived by her grandson, Gavriel Cutipa-Zorn of Oviedo; and her niece, Carole Rapp of Norwalk, Conn. She was preceded in death by her daughter, Dr. Elayne Zorn, who was an internationally known anthropologist.

Mrs. Gordon was buried in New Jersey.
