Not sure what to say?

It was sad to hear of Sheldon's passing, we worked together at Tarbell in 1981/1982. Sheldon was always a ray of shunshine. He will be missed. Hoping you all find your peace.

Sherwin, I am so sorry for your loss. It has been along time since you all lived around Rugby. Life is so precious. I lost my mom in April of this year. It is so hard to lose loved ones. We come down to the Vancouver area once in a while to see my sister Linda. I am retired now and do really appreciate the fact that I can keep in touch with friends and family. If you have a chance, give me a call as it would be nice to say hello to you. 360-561-1345. God Bless You all. My prayers...

Sherwin, I am so sorry to hear this news. I know how close you two were. I have alot of fond memories of him along with that radiant smile and laugh. You and the kids are in my thoughts and prayers today. Love,

So sorry to hear of Sheldon's passing. I worked with him at Tarbell briefly in 1981, 1982. He had an old dog he loved so much that died at that time. Easy to see what a kind guy he was. We had twinship in common, and I feel so badly for Sherwin. I can only imagine. Peace be with you, Sheldon.

I knew Sheldon from playing baseball. It is such a great game that I know he loved. The object is simple, to make it home. He touched me with his spirit so he lives on as he does in you.

In addition to sharing the enjoyment of baseball, my wife and I enjoyed doing things with Wendy and Sheldon, such as going to the movies and cruise in events. I especially enjoyed being with Sheldon and Sherwin in Phoenix for the World Championship games in the senior baseball leagues. We not only did well in those tournaments, but we also enjoyed being together, doing something we all loved. Sheldon was a fun person with a great sense of humor and I am going to miss him a lot.

To Sherwin and all that loved Sheldon -I can't say how sorry I am for this huge loss ... it's just the hardest thing in life, letting go. I've been thinking of you all, but very much of Sherwin and his sweet children - life will be forever different - know that there is lots of love around you, and don't hesitate to reach out for it.

I'm so happy that Sheldon found happiness these past years. Blessings, Kathy Lakey

Wendy my dear friend, we are so sorry for your loss. I wish so much you would have had more years together. We know that Sheldon is in the arms of the Lord and that those arms will hold you up through this sad time. Our prayers are with you, Love Jack & Vickie

To Sheldon's family. I only knew him and Sherwin in a business relationship but it was such a strong one that we kept getting back to them whenever we needed painting --at our home, our rental or our church. Professional painters and professional brothers, and I cannot imagine the pain, Sherwin, of losing your other half.
