Sorry to hear of Sheldon´s passing. He was my 2nd cousin and we grew up together and attended the the U of R together. He will be missed.

Judy, sending condolences to you and your family. May all of your wonderful memories be a blessing at this very sad time.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Sheldon was a wonderful person and exceptional boss. It was my extreme honor to work for him for almost 20 years in his research lab. He always listened to my opinion and treated me with respect. I admired all that he accomplished in work and in his personal life. Much love and sincere sympathy to Judy, Juliet, Scott, Erin and their families. He will be missed.

My deepest condolences to the Markowitz family. I have so many childhood memories of hanging out with Dr. Markowitz through my friendship with his son Scott and his close friendship with my parents. My last memory of him was at my wedding where he was so happy and joyful, like he often was. It's a nice image to keep. He was a good man and may his memory be a blessing to all his family and friends. -Michael Artz
