Sandra Tadevich

Sandra "Sandy" Lee Tadevich, 85, passed away peacefully on June 1, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. 

Sandy was born on September 17, 1940. On January 21, 1961, she married the love of her life, Lawrence “Larry” Edward Tadevich. Together they built a beautiful life centered on faith, family, love, and service to others. 

They were blessed with five beloved children: Joyce (Scott) Newhall of Bristol, IN; Julie (Greg) Cinal of North Liberty, IN; William “Bill” (Tuula) Tadevich of Chicago, IL; Robert “Bob" Tadevich of Elkhart, IN; and Stephen (Jan) Tadevich of Osceola, IN. Sandy was also a proud and loving grandmother to sixteen grandchildren and fifteen great-grandchildren, all of whom brought her immeasurable joy. 

Sandy was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. While she faithfully helped alongside Larry in their family business, Network Solutions, Inc., which they founded together in 1989, her greatest joy was always her family. Larry and Sandy often said the business was God’s company, meant to be used for his glory and to bless the families who worked there. 

A woman of deep and abiding faith, Sandy faithfully served together in many areas of ministry. She taught the kindergarten Sunday School class at Northside Baptist Church for 20 years and was deeply involved in Bible Study Fellowship, where she served as group leader for 15 years. She attended Spencerian Business College in Milwaukee, which helped her in her later career with Larry. 

Sandy loved being wherever her children and grandchildren were. Whether attending sporting events, choir concerts, dance recitals, mission trips, or simply gathering together as a family, she found her greatest happiness in supporting and encouraging those she loved.

She will be remembered for her gentle spirit, unwavering faith, servant’s heart, and the deep love she poured into her family and everyone blessed to know her. Sandy’s legacy of faith, love and devotion will continue to live on through the many lives she touched. 

A visitation will be held at Northside Baptist Church, located at 53198 Co Rd. 9, Elkhart, IN 46514, on Friday, June 5, 2026, from 9:00 am - 11:00 am, with a service beginning at 11:00 a.m. Burial will immediately follow at Carleton Cemetery.  At the request of the family, please wear joyful and bright colors to commemorate her life, and join her in her celebration in her unity with Christ, her life-long desire!
