Just read about Sheldon's passing. I'm very sorry and sad. Sheldon and I were classmates throughout elhi and I still have our 4th grade class picture. Sheldon was one of the smarter, good looking kids in class---I was jealous. After highschool I only saw Sheldon once during a summer when he was visiting home. Again I'm sorry and saddened, but happy he had a good and rewarding life.

Best regards,

A tremendous loss. Thirty one years of being fortunate to have the most dedicated caring doctor as my Endocrinologist as well as a friend. Years of family stories, life, jokes and laughter and keeping me healthy. I always felt a special bond with his wonderful wife Kathi a very special lady as well. There will always be a special place in my heart for this remarkable man. He left me in very good hands which I am very grateful for. Always thinking of his patients. Rest in Peace! Heartbroken Cori

Dr. Nassburg was my endocrinologist for many years. He was very professional and had a vast amount of knowledge that he always shared. When I needed another specialist he always knew which one to send me to. We became personal friends as well, as we both were from NYC. His wife was always very kind and a pleasure to work with. Ft. Lauderdale will miss Dr. Nassburg.

KATHI & FAMILY; I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THE OBIT TODAY IN THE PAPER. AS YOU KNOW, I SPENT MANY YEARS WITH Sheldon AS MY DOCTOR. I ALWAYS TRIED TO BRING A LITTLE LEVITY INTO OUR MEETINGS. HE WANTED TO KEEP IT SERIOUS, I WON. MANY TIMES I HAVE TOLD PEOPLE HE WAS THE SMARTEST DOCTOR I EVER MET. HE ALWAYS PROVED ME RIGHT BY ANSWERING MY NUMEROUS AND VARIED QUESTION. I TRULY ENJOYED OUR SESSIONS TOGETHER AND HAVE THOUGHT OF HIM MANY TIMES. HE WAS A PLEASURE TO INTERACT WITH.

My mom was a patient of Dr. Nassberg for years. She said he would natter her about her blood sugar when she "misbehaved". He said to her if she was not going to take care of herself, why bother seeing him? She did as she was told! She loved it when he said those things...bluntly and direct. Imet him briefly a few times. Condolences to his family

I worked with Dr. Nassburg for many years at Holy Cross Hospital. I shared his enjoyment of popular restaurants in the Florida Keyes. I will remember him with a smile.
