Support the Family of Firefighter Rob Sharkevich

Donation protected
In Loving Memory of my brother firefighter Robert Sharkevich Sr.

It is with profound sadness that we mourn the loss of one of our bravest, Firefighter Robert "Rob" Sharkevich Sr., also known as “Sharky”.
Rob made the ultimate sacrifice while battling the devastating wildfire in Berlin, Connecticut on October 22, 2024. His courage and dedication to protecting our community cost him his life, but his legacy of service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Rob wasn't just a firefighter – he was a HERO.
When the call came to battle the dangerous wildfires threatening our community, he didn't hesitate. He put on his gear and went out to protect our homes, our families, and our lives.

Rob's sacrifice reminds us that heroes walk among us and they run toward danger to protect us. They put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe. Now is our time to show that our community takes care of its heroes and their families.

Rob is survived by his wife and four children, including two, who are seniors in high school soon to be enrolled in college. Please donate what you can and share this message far and wide. Let's show the Sharkevich family that they are not alone – that their extended family includes every person Rob worked to protect. Our community stands united in support of those he left behind.

Every dollar donated will directly support the Sharkevich family to ensure they don't have to worry about immediate family needs and financial security while grieving this devastating loss. It was Rob’s wish that Camden and Kayden enroll in college after graduation. This fundraiser will help support the family in covering higher education costs. Funds donated will be used to help pay higher education costs.

100% of proceeds go directly to the Sharkevich family
