SILBERMAN DEATH NOTICES SHELOW Howard Leonard Shelow was born January 7, 1932 to David Shelow and Sophie Meyers in Philadelphia, PA. A 1949 Laureati Honor So- ciety Member as a West Philadelphia High School graduate; and, a 1953 Dean's List Wharton School , University of Pennsylvania moved to Estero, Florida in 1991. In Florida, Mr. Shelow maintained a most successful tax preparation organization, under the leader- ship of CEO Edward Wierzbowski since 1978, which enjoyed prestige and the height of ac- complishment for nearly forty years. Before relocating in Estero, Florida, Mr. Shelow served as controller for Jade Electronics in Trevose, Pennsylvania from 1975 to 1991 for which he was solely responsible for the phe- nomenal thriving growth enjoyed by the cor- poration moving to its present location at 275 Andrews Road. Mr. Shelow was the mentor of many of the Jade employees who turned to him and relied on him for guidance. Mr. Shel- ow was a jacket all trades and a master of all of them, and it did not take long for the Jade Organization to move from the second floor of 3507 Kensington Avenue to 410B Clear- view Avenue and 275 Andrews Road. Howard Shelow will be missed by all the Jade person- nel to which he added dimension. Mr. Wi- erzbowski served as his health surrogate and caregiver and was visited yearly in October by Mr. Shelow's niece, Debbie Leonardo of Egg Harbor Township, NJ to be with and cel- ebrate with her uncles Howard and Ed and nephew Skippy. We enjoyed Debbie's Tues- day, Thursday and Saturday speaker phone calls which included from the serious to the sublime and from meaningful discussion of Grand dogs to the meaningless chatter of how the morning coffee might turn out. The quantity of Mr. Shelow's friends were less than the digits of one hand; but, the quality of Mr. Shelow's friends made up more than sheer numbers could represent. Many tried to emulate what Mr. Shelow and Mr. Wi- erzbowskia accomplished; but failed because the honesty and integrity of the dual purpose was artificial and served an ulterior motive. During the years, Mr. Shelow failed to realize that many who came across as his friends, were not friends and failed to keep in touch with him after their purpose was accom- plished. These people know who they are and have to live with their own conscience until they reach the point were I am today.
