## Resource

A heartbreaking tragedy unfolded on Interstate 5 near Redding when longtime San Francisco arts patrons Judith and Wylie Sheldon, both in their 80s, were found dead inside their Jeep en route to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. The couple, deeply involved in the city’s cultural scene and known for hosting artists at their home, succumbed to heat-related causes amid record-breaking temperatures — though official autopsy results are still pending. Their lives, rich with legacy and generosity, now serve as a sobering reminder of extreme weather’s deadly potential. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
