She performed for many years in shows staged by synagogue and community groups and square-danced on the Great Wall of China.
Predeceased by her husband of 52 years, Robert, she is survived by three daughters, Barbara D. Underwood of Brooklyn, Judy K. Underwood of Fort Collins, Colo.; and Suzy Underwood of Sacramento, Calif.; five grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
Private services were held in Florida. Memorial contributions may be made to Planned Parenthood or HIAS.
