Sheldon R. Levin

Dear Shel,
Today would have been your 72nd birthday,I still miss you so much. I am trying to move on,it has been a tough journey..but I keep trying I know you would want that for me. Love Carol

Well, I've put-off writing this memory because it reminds me of a loss of my own. -When Carol asked that we share memories of Shel, what first came to mind was how he stood witness and comforter for my family the day my father died. Shel was so calm and reassuring as we stood watch for those last hours of my dad's life.
I remember that toward the end, Uncle Shel and my brother, Ed, who was also really great that day- helped my dad stand and walk to the window a short distance from...

My thoughts are with you, Aunt Carolyn. I did not know Shel very well, but he always, always, made me laugh with his humor (or antics). When I was old enough to bark back at him, I think he enjoyed that even more.
I hope that as time passes, the pain of loss diminishes, but the fond memories remain vivid.

Carol, I was at the Memorial web site and was reading some of the entries. It brings tears to my eyes every time I think of how much love and life Shel would show us.Im preparing for the Passover Holiday with cleaning and purchasing special foods. My thoughts are of Sheldon in how much he enjoyed coming over to share the Holiday with us and our family. Somehow I would like to believe that he is still with us at our Seder Table.We all will be thinking of him! From the Zadakas Yefet and Robin.

Dear Shel, today is our 48th Wedding Anniversary, you are not here to celebrate with me. I miss you so much. I know if you were here you would be asking "Where should we go for Dinner? we always celebrated our Anniversary together and Since it was St. Patrichs Day too, there were always lots of people around us to help celebrate even when we were alone. I am very sad to think that Last year at this time we had to celebrate in the hospital. I am comimg out to Fort Snelling to visit you today....

My Dear Sheldon,
My heart is breaking especially today on your 70th birthday..You always said you wouldn't make to your 70th and you were right..I am so sad, I miss you so much. I wish you were here to talk to me and help with some difficult decisions. I have had dreams of you and you were convincing me of how everything is going to be okay,like you always did lately. I will never forget our last outing together on Mothers Day this year, you insisted on spending the day with me since our...

Mara, I am so sorry for your loss. My condolences to your Mom and the rest of your family. Your memories of him are wonderful and he will be in your heart forever. My love and prayers. Eunice, Fl.

So sorry for your loss. It was good to see you and Mara the other day so I could express by sympathy and joke a little bit about Sheldon. He was always interesting when he was in the store as you never new what he would do or say. I liked Sheldon and enjoyed the verbal stuff he threw at me...and I would just give it right back at him. We will miss him...but at the same time there will many memories! He is better now! It was nice being a part of his healthcare team. Rest in peace Sheldon.

Carolyn, Scott, Wendy, & Mara: I just found about about Sheldon's passing, and I was shocked and saddened. I have so many good memories of visiting with your dad and mom on Hampshire Avenue when you were all young. He was a wonderful,loving and humorous man. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Rest in peace Sheldon.

Sincerely,
Jody Musil (Nelson)
