Gertrude M. Sandler

Gertrude M. Sandler, age 91, passed away on Friday, March 17, 2023, in San Antonio, Texas, after a long battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. She was born on December 3, 1931, to Sam and Leah (Glick) Esserick. She is preceded in death by both of her parents; and her sister, Cecelia Esserick. Gertrude is survived by her son, Gary Sandler and wife, Kelley Sandler; her grandson, David Sandler; and her sister, Gaby Scharlack and husband, Alex Scharlack. Gertrude had a passion for cooking and baking, and she enjoyed sharing this passion with all of those around her. She worked at USAA for over 20 years and was dedicated to serving our veterans. She loved being outdoors, and you could often find her taking long strolls around the neighborhood. Gertrude took pride in giving back to her community in the form of volunteer work with various organizations. In her youth, she was a talented dancer, and was even the captain of her high school dance team. Above all else, Gertrude was extremely dedicated to her family, and strived to make everyone around her feel loved and appreciated. We will greatly miss our beloved mother, grandmother, and sister. Her memory will live on in our hearts.
