My name is Shawn Kastens, and I am starting this GoFundMe on behalf of my sister, Cheyenne Kastens, who was tragically and senselessly killed on the afternoon of 11/14/2025 outside a Dollar General in the Fruitland area of South Putnam County. Our family is devastated by her sudden and unexpected passing, and we are raising funds to help cover her funeral and cremation costs.
Cheyenne was truly one of a kind.
She worked on boats and absolutely loved the life that came with it. She was fun-loving, kind, smart, and always ready with a joke to make someone smile. She loved her cats and animals, cherished time with her friends, and brought joy to every room she walked into.
This loss has shattered our family. While the suspect is currently in custody, nothing can ease the pain of losing Cheyenne far too soon.
We deeply appreciate all of the phone calls, text messages, prayers, and social media posts we’ve received. Your kindness has meant more than you know.
If you are able, please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser to help us honor Cheyenne and give her the farewell she deserves. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
— The Kastens Family
