Sheldon Adelson, the Las Vegas casino mogul and Republican megadonor, passed away from complications related to non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, his company announced on Tuesday.
Adelson, 87, was raised in a Boston tenement by Jewish immigrants and rose throughout his life to become a multi-billionaire, the company said, at one point making him the third-richest person in the world. He and his wife, Miriam, were President Donald Trump’s largest donors, and donated $525 million to federal political campaigns and committees throughout the past decade.
