Sheldon Adelson, a known casino business magnate and biggest supporter of Donald Trump, passed away on Jan. 11. He was 87 years old.
As per Fox Business, Sheldon Adelson was being treated for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that was detected in 2019. He is still actively working for his company but recently stepped away so he can continue with his treatments.
Messages from politician friends poured in

With the announcement of his passing, personalities have expressed their condolences and sympathies through social media and other public outlets.

“Melania and I mourn the passing of Sheldon Adelson and send our heartfelt condolences to his wife Miriam, his children and grandchildren,” the POTUS said in a statement. “Sheldon lived the true American dream. His ingenuity, genius, and creativity earned him immense wealth, but his character and philanthropic generosity his great name.”
Former President George W. Bush also released a statement to express their sympathies.
"Laura and I mourn the passing of a friend," he wrote via the Bush Presidential Center. "He was an American patriot and a strong supporter of Israel and was a generous benefactor of charitable causes.”
