    So very sorry to hear of this gentleman, Sheldon, passing. He seemed to me like a fixture at Home Hardware and I always sought him out when shopping there. His enthusiasm and knowledge was always appreciated. It will take some getting used to his absence.

    I have fond memories of Sheldon's hockey skills with the Harper Hall 'Chiefs' of the Mount A intramural hockey league and the loudest speakers in basement Harper Hall! Rest In Peace Sheldon.

    I was very saddened to hear of Sheldon's passing. I knew him at Mount Allison and played on his hockey team. He was a true character who would give you the shirt off his back. Always there for his friends and always up for some shenanigans. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. He will be missed.

    Very saddened to hear of Sheldon's passing. I knew him during some golden years at Mount Allison - and more poignantly at Trueman House - where his energy, sense of humor and positive outlook were always appreciated. Condolences to the family and rest well, Sheldon.
