Sheila Weisfeld of VPI
« on: 1 Jan 2012, 06:37 pm »
Sheila passed away late last month. I believe she had inoperable pancreatic cancer. More details at vpiindustries dot com.

Those of us who have called VPI looking for Mike or Harry no doubt have spoken with Sheila first. For me she was a jolt of good old NY/NJ-speak, which was always welcome to this tranpslanted New Yorker living in Michigan.

She often helped me as a go-between with Mike in customer service. Always efficient and enerjetic. Sometimes I wondered if she just didn't run the whole place! :icon_lol: She could sure get things done.

Anyway, I didn't see this posted and thought the Vinyl Circle would be a good place. I'll miss her.

That's a shame - I only dealt with her a few times but she left a real positive impression.

My google search of AudioCircle didn't give me that link. Thanks, baffled!

Sorry to hear this. She was a gem. Always pleasant to deal with.

I wonder if they'll offer a new memorial turntable or arm in her name?

Yup - sad - she did me right a few times.  I have #50 in the production run of the VPI Classic due to her kindness :thumb:

Quite a pistol that one was.  RIP.
