Reynolds, Sheldon Kristoff passed away peacefully at Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital on Tuesday December 19th he was 27 years old.
Sheldon was born July 14, 1996, to proud parents Yvonne & Leonard Reynolds. Sheldon’s battle with the tumour was tenaciously fought with courage and poise to the very end, he was not a fighter but a warrior. Sheldon excelled academically; he had a hunger for knowledge always eager to learn something new. Music was his passion, a self-taught musician he played several instruments: piano, drums, guitar & saxophone. He would spend hours making beats & soundtracks, a true artist. He enjoyed sports, especially basketball.
He was eternally positive, calm, & kind. Always encouraging those near to him to be the best version of themselves. He had a special gift; he was able to make you feel as though you were the most special person in the world whenever you had the privilege of spending time with him. Often telling his mother how beautiful she was or complimenting his fiancé or aunties on their appearance or character.
Sheldon undoubtedly left a lasting mark, enriching the lives of many. He is survived by his loving parents Yvonne & Leonard, his cherished fiancé Gabriella, his adored siblings Andre, Uwayne & Jalen.
