Harry Sheldon wrote a sympathy message

“I’m so sorry to have come across his passing. I will forever have so many wonderful memories of staying with my Aunt and Uncle when we would visit Philadelphia. I thought my Uncle Dave was the coolest because he had some great video games to play on the TV before so many others. What a gift to have led such an amazing and long life. I wish I would have made more effort to keep in touch. Please say hello to your wife and my family in heaven. Much love, your nephew, Ray (Butch) Sheldon”
