Not sure what to say?

Periodically "check-up" on the wonderful attorneys I worked with at Pettit & Martin. Saddened to learn of Sheldon's passing. Happy to hear he had such a long, productive career & life. I adored working at P&M (in accounting) and the guidance & support from Sheldon was pivotal in the smart professional choices I made after leaving P&M.

I was Sheldon´s Secretary at Steefel, Levit & Weiss. As time passed he gave me more & leeway creating documents and editing his letters. He helped me grow tremendously in my skills.

Sheldon was my boss for several years and he took a special interest in honing my skills and my growth in the field of Estate Planning was tremendous under his leadership. I am sorry for the loss to the entire family. Noreen Quintal

Eli and I have been further honored...

Rhoda, We are in the desert and were so shocked and saddened to hear of Sheldon's passing. We have very fond memories of Shel and please send our sincere condolences to your lovely family. Fondly, Rhoda and Peter Samuels

I was greatly saddened to learn that Sheldon had passed away. We worked together for 17+ years at Pettit & Martin, where, of course, he made sure I was aware of the Jewish Community Federation, and I have wonderful memories of him. After I left the firm, I would run into him from time to time and was always glad to see him. The last time I saw him, he was trying out opera at a Saturday morning Met HD-cast --- evidence that he continued to try new things in his later years. My deepest...

A sweet guy all round. A delightful law partner

Dear Mrs. Wolfe and family, I am saddened to learn of Sheldon's passing and am so sorry for your loss. Sheldon was a true gem and a delight to partner with as a trusted estate planning attorney during my tenure working with several charitable organizations in San Francisco. His skilled expertise coupled with genuine light, care for people and generous spirit will be missed. May you find comfort in all Sheldon's life represented and achieved and may his memory be a blessing to each...
