Visitation:

Sandi, born October 19, 1946 in Coral Gables, Florida, died March 10, 2010 in Scottsdale, Arizona. She was surrounded by her family, her many friends and the love she so richly deserved. Sandi grew up all over the world and spent her young adult years in Florida. She rose through the ranks of the investment industry, running operations for several national brokerage firms. During this time, she and daughter Shelley, who had a special and extraordinary bond, enjoyed life on the Florida beaches and then the lights of Beverly Hills before returning home to their family roots in Georgia. Sandi ended her career at Charles Schwab and Associates in San Francisco, where she met her husband Will Pearson. Will and Sandi married in 1991, retired, moved to Scottsdale, and pursued having fun with a passion. Days were filled with golf, tennis, world travel, and rich friendships.

Sandi and Will own Pages bookstore in Cave Creek. Will says Sandi was the heart and soul of the place, and the shop is known for its many special events and symposia. A very accomplished woman, Sandi played classical piano, cultivated an organic garden, and was a gourmet cook. And you didn’t even want to think about playing Trivial Pursuits with her. Sandi was always focused on the needs of others and did a great deal of charitable work, including serving as president of Creative Women of Pinnacle Peak, where she raised funds for the education of homeless children.

Sandi is survived by her husband Will, four children, Shelley Mulligan, Kelly Hawley, Sean Pearson and GayLynn Beason; sister, Cheri Morris, brothers Bill and Don Campbell, nieces Kristen Morris, Carrie and Chelsea Campbell, nephew Colin Morris and 10 grandchildren, Michael, Ryan, Patrick, Savannah, Tanner, Haley, Hannah, Riley, Holton, and Kiara.

Memorials: In keeping with her giving spirit Sandi asked that in lieu of flowers donations be made to C.A.R.E. Cancer Awareness Research and Education, P.O. Box 3740, Carefree, AZ, 85377
