(Reposting this to correct the location)
Sheldon's family is trying to collect tributes for Sheldon in a single location. If you could please post your tributes at it would be appreciated.
Please re-post for visibility
I had the privilege to meet Sheldon at Pro Tour Chicago back in 1999. He was stationed in Belgium at the time and was introduced to me as "someone you need to know". Prophetic.
Sheldon always said his super hero power was choosing friends. Best complement I ever got.

On August 3 1998, I boarded a plane from Orange County, CA to Milwaukee, WI for GenCon. It was my first day of work at Wizards of the Coast. 20 years later, I am in Minneapolis running a Magic: the Gathering Pro Tour. Thanks to everyone that helped me get this far.

While I was down visiting Sheldon in his last days, he listed to a lot of music. I heard him play this song at least 3 times.
I know it had special meaning to him and what he was going through. Please have a listen
I spent the entire month of August with him. He was optimistic about his situation the whole time.
I will be eternally grateful for all the time I spent with him over the years. He was truly one of a kind. Everyone who met him was changed.

I've waited most of the day to post anything about

's passing. Mostly because I didn't know what I wanted to say. If I wanted it to be public. Or if I should say anything at all.
But here it is, a little bit of a tribute, but also a fun story...

Iβve been piloting this guy in Commander since 2007. I was on vacation at GP Daytona Beach in 2007 and brewed up a deck while my judge friends were judging the event. Brion + Serra Avatar + 98 = Flingy goodness!

Commander offers a creative freedom that is different from most other formats. But the variety of directions one can take when building a deck can be overwhelming.
@goberthicks
has some tips on how to get started.

When I'm jamming games this weekend, I'll be masked and will insist on anyone playing with me do the same. Please understand I'll also be for the most part avoiding handshakes and hugs, going to the fist bump for greetings.

Risch: if DC and Puerto Rico become states, "I will be the last Republican chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee forever because they will pick up four Democratic seats that will never flip over. ... Republicans will never be in the majority in the United States Senate."

I got my start working at McDonalds. That job doesnβt exist if the minimum wage is raised to $15 per hour.
Small business would be crushed by this arbitrary mandate & big business would simply automate away jobs.
Not everything that SOUNDS good is actually good in practice.

In South Korea π°π·, the solar panels in the middle of the highway have a bicycle path underneath - cyclists are protected from the sun, isolated from traffic, and the country can produce clean energy.

Bonus: I got a cool, oversized version signed by fellow employees and judges to celebrate my 20th Anniversary as staff on the Pro Tour. Great to see him back.
