Sadie "Sandy" B. Silverman, age 87, of Greeley, Colorado passed away on Saturday, March 9, 2024. Sandy was born in Fort Lupton, Colorado to Dewey and Ola (Revels) Knox. She was the only girl, with five older brothers.

After graduating from high school, Sandy moved to Hawaii where she was a nanny for a couple of years. She worked for a time as a CNA at the Trinidad Hospital in Colorado, and spent many years working as an underwriter for an insurance company.
