From Jeremy Freid

Steve gave me my start in the real estate business and taught me everything there was to know about the Real Estate Auction industry. Steve and I both had an intense craving for deals. We sold a boarding school, trophy homes, land, an industrial portfolio, office buildings, a regional shopping mall, vertical and horizontal residential development units, time shares, and vacation homes together during our time together at Sheldon Good and Company. We traveled around the country by private jet, commercial airlines, his Escalade, my Jeep, boat, train, clients’ cars, rental cars and many other means of transportation I am sure I am forgetting. We played tennis, golf, fished, swam, shot clay pigeons and went skiing together. We ate fast food, dined over fine cuisine, smoked cigars, and had a ton of laughs and many yelling sessions along the way. It was a tremendous ride.

My deepest condolences go out to Jamie, Scott, Logan and David. My thoughts are with my former Sheldon Good employees and I urge you to tackle the auction industry with the same passion, strategy and intensity Steve would expect of you.

As I attempt to wrap my brain around his loss, knowing I most likely will never be able to, I will never forget my friend and mentor Steven L. Good.
