For many years Sol was an outstanding racquetball player at the Standard Club in Chicago-beating much younger men. His son John and I were contemporaries and attended a football camp in Minnesota one summer. Think he told me about being the first NFL player to throw a pass for an extra point in the 73-0 game. Wonderful memories.

Mr. Sherman and his wife, Devorah were fun and interesting to be around. Nothing prevented Devorah from voicing her opinion on anything and Saul would just watch. I loved his dry sense of humor. It's hard to believe they've been gone so long. Poor Shirley just passed away last year! She also was a grand lady.

My deepest, sincerely sympathy is with all of you during this time of sorrow. I shared many happy times with Saul and Devorah during the past 40 years of being neighbors. I truly enjoyed talking about his football years, as his spirits picked up instantly. They were a beautiful and entertaining couple and will be missed by all. Warmly, Pat Cohen

We remember your Dad as a great paddleball champion at the Standard Club, and a truly nice man who was always happy to say hello, and had a comforting manner and easy laugh. He was always nice to Nancy and me. I remember being at your home in Winnetka many times. We will miss your Dad--a true mensch. Nancy and Dan Pollack

Your father was a wonderful man and a good friend for many years before illness befell him. Although we have never met I want to extend my condolences. Many in the community, like me have fond memories of him. May the good Lord console you during this trying time.
