Hello friends and family. The Sheaves family is starting this fundraiser in honor of our beloved Derek Sheaves. Derek devastatingly took his own life and passed away on the morning of October 19th. Derek was a compassionate, protective, hard-working, and sacrificial Father, Son, Brother, Husband, Uncle, and friend.

We are absolutely devastated by Derek’s passing and are struggling to find the funds to cover the cost of the service and other expenses. We want to give Derek the memorial he deserves, to honor his memory, and to say our last goodbyes.

Please consider donating if you are able to do so. We are so very grateful for every donation during this difficult time.

With love,

Maddy Pappas- Derek's niece.
