Leslie Silverman

I have countless wonderful memories of the BEST dad ever!! I have been super close with my loving dad my entire life. I love and appreciate him more than words could ever express! I cannot imagine not being able to talk and text him like we do all the time! I am lucky that we had a lot of fun plans recently, but we had many more to come…

I get much of my personality, sense of humor, big heart, and sales skills from Dad and will be forever grateful!! I would not be the person I am today if it wasn’t for him!! His incredible love will always be in my heart forever and ever! I miss him SO much already!!!

Not only has Shelly been the best dad ever, but also the best grandpa, husband, brother, uncle, friend and the list goes on and on…he was truly one of a kind!!

I will love you forever and ever, Dad!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Growing up so close I was lucky to have him as a second father. I never really realized just how lucky I was. I still remember a lot of the things Jeff and I did with my father and uncle. I am really sorry he passed but I’m happy he’s at peace.

We are shocked and saddened that Shelly has departed.. We had the best time at his 80th birthday party as he danced and sang with Leslie and Anita. He was devoted to his family and friends and will be missed by us all.
Sincere condolences,

Donna and Jay Stone
