I am so sorry to hear of Sheldon's passing. He was such a kind, ethical individual! Sheldon and I first met when I was a freshman and he was a senior at Ottawa High School, Ottawa, Kansas. We were both members of the Ottawa High School band. Just several years ago, I chanced to speak with Sheldon, who raved about his beautiful wife Sally (whom I've not had the pleasure of meeting) and spoke of the pride he had in his children and their accomplishments. He will be sorely missed.

Met and worked for Sheldon in 1976 when we were both stationed at Goodfellow. He served with dignity and honor and I am proud to have known him and called him friend.
