"Sandra Stark Kempner, was the youngest daughter of Edith Lucille Judges and Fredrick Edward Stark. She was born in Olympia Washington on June 4, 1914. She spent much of her youth in Montana and attended 4 years of college in Montana and UCLA. As a girl of five, she raised money for the Red Cross to support the troops during WWI and while working as a Red Cross volunteer in New York during World War II she met her life long friend Margaret Loeb Kempner and her future husband Alan Kempner. She moved to Arizona in 1958 and she quickly became active in the local art community. She motivated and contributed to the development of many budding artists. She personally was inspired by the challenge of creating frames to compliment the paintings of her friend Philip C. Curtis. Their work is on permanent display in the Phoenix Art Museum. She was a loving mother and friend, a patient listener and her home was a safe harbor for any friend in need of any generation. Her wit and wisdom are treasured memories and survive in all who were fortunate enough to know her well. She died on August 11, 2004, lucid till the end and joyously anticipating the journey ahead. She survived her son Peter, her daughter Shelley her ex-husband Alan Kempner and Phil Curtis. She is survived by her son Alan, her grandson Buck and a loving extended family that spans the nation. Her radiant torch, Eternally extinguished, Illuminates still. " [3]
