General Consultant Discussion

It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that Sheldon Kralstein passed away yesterday. Sheldon was my business partner on and off since 1996 and retired from Clients First at the end of 2013. As some of you may know, he was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer last year, and his been fighting ""the good fight"" ever since. To many of us, Sheldon was highly and positively influential. His counsel, guidance, integrity, intelligence and unique ability to see things in a different way profoundly and constructively affected so many lives. I think most of you will agree with the sentiments of one of his close business associates and friend, who said ""Sheldon is a Giant in this industry"". He was also a Giant friend to many of us, and he will be sorely missed. I still plan on being at the MOTM even as scheduled.

So sorry to hear about this. I know he played a big role in shaping a lot of the VAR landscape and many people looked up to him as a thought leader.

So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend, colleague, and mentor.

He will be missed very much. My condolences to you @MarkChinsky and his family.

So sorry to hear about your loss, lifting everyone up in prayer.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I look forward to having a drink with you on Thursday so you can share some of your favorite memories of him. He sounds like a person I would have liked to know more about.

Hey Mark - I was thinking of you when I saw the news from Bob Scott. Hang in there buddy - we are all thinking of you.

Deepest condolensces

Sorry about your loss, Mark. I'll be keeping Sheldon's family and friends in my thoughts. Cancer sucks.

Thank you Mark for sharing his passing. My condolences to you and all those at Clients First.
