Eddie Sheinberg

Eddie Sheinberg passed away on Sunday, September 1, 2024. He was born on August 2, 1929 in Houston, Texas, and was the youngest of 4 children born to his loving parents, Max & Leona Sheinberg. Eddie was a member of AEPi at The University of Texas at Austin. In his sophomore year -1949- he met the love of his life, Pauline, at an AEPi party in Houston. Later, Pauline became an AEPi sweetheart. Their love story rivaled the infamous movie, “THE NOTEBOOK” – that lasted 69 years. Eddie could not imagine his life without Pauline after meeting this brown-eyed beauty. They married in 1952. From that moment on, and forevermore, she captured his heart and held it tight - forever! In 1952, Eddie was in the Marines and stationed in San Francisco where he and Pauline lived for two years. After that, they moved to Houston and built their first home and brought into the world their first child, Debbie. Two years later, Randy was born, and this completed their family. Eddie was a remarkable athlete, known for his exceptional skills and sportsmanship. As a standout baseball player at San Jacinto High School, he was renowned for his ability to catch the high-velocity pitches of star pitcher Frank Womack, being the only catcher capable of handling him. Eddie’s athletic prowess extended to bowling, where he led numerous leagues with his impressive average in the men’s category. He won many first-place trophies in the B’nai Brith league at Palace Lanes, boasting a 192-scratch average in tournament events. Together with his beloved wife, Pauline, Eddie dedicated time to teaching bowling to the men and women from the Lighthouse for the Blind, and of course, passed on his love for the sport to their children, Randy and Debbie. After moving back to Houston in the early 1950s, Eddie joined his father, Max, and brother, Morris, at Sheinberg Mfg. Company, where they produced state-regulated gym-wear for Houston high schools. Eddie and his beloved wife, Pauline, later embarked on a new venture, creating custom embroidered emblems. Together, they built their first company, Texas Art Embroidery, from the ground up, establishing a family legacy. This legacy was proudly carried on by their son, Randy, who managed the company until Eddie's retirement at the young age of 86. Eddie was preceded in death by his devoted and loving wife of 69 years, Pauline, his brothers, Morris and Haskell Sheinberg, and his sister, Evelyn Sheinberg Finkelstein. He is survived by his beloved daughter, Debbie Paull, and husband, Alan, and son, Randy Sheinberg. He is also loved by his grandchildren, Robbie Paull and partner, Christina Huang, Jennifer Sheinberg, Jeffrey Paull, his wife, Sylvia, Cori Ramoin, her husband, Joe, and his great grandchildren, Ryder and Olivia Ramoin and Felix Paull.
