When I first moved to Scranton, Sheldon was one of my first good friends who helped me navigate Scranton high school. He will be missed.

Sheldon and I were neighbors in the 400 block of Clay, and friendly for years. His love of baseball turned into a lifetime passion. Haven't seen Sheldon since Central, but he left good and friendly memories behind. His parents, and siblings were good people too Glad I knew them. May he rest in peace.
