Not sure what to say?

I have been thinking of Shelly for years, and am so sad I didn't act on those thoughts way, way earlier. My heart broke when his obituary was the result of my Google search. Shelly was a dear, fun friend, a gentle soul I knew from The Apple Pie in Georgetown, before he moved to Colorado. I loved spending time with him at his beautiful home in Potomac. The world lost a beautiful person. God speed.

I always sent him two Birthday Cards which made him laugh. We went to the Universal Studios tour and my fathers Uncle, Sydney Solow got us both a VIP pass so we did not have to wait in line. Shelly knew how to have a good time and he made everyone happy where ever he went. A true gentleman that loved to laugh.

Shelly has come to mind so many times since I last saw him in the 70s. Remembering hanging out at his home in Potomac. A free spirit, a great talent, and great fun. Sorry I did not look him up when he popped into my mind and heart. Too late now...

Goodbye Shelly and all the beat on your new journey!! We had some wild times:)

Shelly was old friend dating back to the days at St. Albans and then down in Georgetown and at his home in Potomac. Rest in peace.

Many memories of this sweet man and fun times together. You are missed. See you on the other side.

Henry my dear old friend, I'm so sorry to learn of Shelly's passing, with him being part of so many fond memories from our teenage years. I send my condolences and love to you and all your family.

Condolences to Henry and all the family, loved ones, and friends. Many wonderful memories of times spent with Shelly and friends in Potomac, MD. Godspeed, old friend.

Thinking of you during this difficult time, with caring..
