Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I can't believe it has been almost a year and a half since you left me. I miss you so much, but I know you are watching over me. Love you forever & ever daddy.

I first met Shelly at The American University in 1967 and was impressed with his kindness, intelligence, and consideration for others. From the outset, it was easy to spot that Shelly would become a success in all fields of life he chose to engage. It was great to get together with him in 2010. The world is a better place because of Shelly Gallner and he is missed by all.

I was shocked when I just heard that he had passed away.my condolence goes out to the family.He was a good and fair man and it was a honor to have gotten to know him for the period of time.

A Good Man and a Great Friend. Geo.
