This is the story of my husband & I & our four beautiful children, who will forever be survived by us in our hearts. There’s so many people that knew him. He was an amazing husband, daddy, son, friend & uncle. Everyone who knew him was blessed to even be apart of his life. We have been together for four years and on August 19th we would’ve been 1 year married. I never thought I would have to live my life without my true love, best friend, my soulmate. I couldn’t imagine doing life without him but here it is one of my worst fears everytime he left home to go to work. He had the sweetest soul; he was such a gentle giant. He treated our boys like they were his prince’s. On Sunday, I got the most horrific horrifying phone call imaginable. My husband had drowned in Paducah, Kentucky while he was there working for Terrell River Services. He had been with that company for almost three years. He worked on the Hailey T with his “Sea Daddy Captain Chris Herrin. He was loved by so many out there. My heart breaks mostly for our children. We have an eight year-old, six-year-old, four year old , and his biological son who is 2. I couldn’t ask for a better man, a better husband, a better daddy. He only went to Paducah Kentucky to better our lives and now he is gone! The boys and I will miss and love you so much! We will definitely keep our memories alive. Any support would help with funeral cost. We were definitely not prepared for him to be gone only at 21 years old. We would appreciate any and everything! Love to all!
