  • I've stumbled upon this three years late, but I would still like to offer my condolences to the family. I didn't know Sheldon, but I was friends with Shawn in high school, and in an effort track down my old friend I came across this page. I wish you and your family all the best. - Posted by: Davir Michaelson (Friend of Shawn's) on: Sep 14, 2018

  • I first learnt that Sheldon and I were related when I attended Ecole Secondaire Churchill. He was a year older than I was and I looked up to him. His spirit was kind and his smile was soothing. Anyone who knew him would tell you the same thing. From time to time we would communicate to see how each other were doing. It was very thoughtful of him to keep contact and I appreciated knowing that he cared. I'll miss our chats but I know that he'll still be there looking upon me with interest and care. Now that he's moved on to a better place he will be missed by everyone who knew him. I'm very sad and disappointed I could not attend his funeral. It will be a lasting regret. Sheldon, God has taken you to a better place. May you rest in peace family. Many, many blessings and love. Your cousin, Tevin Olivier-Job - Posted by: Tevin Olivier Job (Cousin) on: May 10, 2015

  • I used to date Sheldon for a few years. He caught my attention with his charismatic smile, charming demeanour and sparkling blue eyes. He had me at 'hello'. We used to go to the symphony, ballet and opera together and can never forget the Tragically Hip concert. We spent time at the lake, exploring nature and we loved to dance. Sheldon introduced me to ball hockey where I made some wonderful friendships that will last a lifetime. Sheldon also guided me into my current career path as an esthetician...he loved to be pampered and thought this was the perfect fit. He would be so proud how far I've come. Forever I am blessed to have met my special guardian angel. Thoughts and prayers to all of Shelon's family and friends as we heal together. He will always hold a special place in my heart. - Posted by: Christel Salamon (A very special friend) on: Apr 20, 2015
