John Edward Sheu's Obituary
John Edward Sheu, 62, a resident of Fort Myers, FL since 1985, formerly of Chicago, Illinois passed away under the care of Hope Hospice on Tuesday, June 20, 2023. He was born November 19, 1960 to the late John and Shirley (nee McDonald) Sheu in Chicago, IL.
His curiosity for fixing things led John to a career in AC refrigeration where he earned his certification. John lived every day to its fullest and loved life with an enduring passion for adventure and an insatiable desire to help others. He was compelled to reach out to anyone in need whether he was on the water in his boat or coming to the aid of a neighbor during a storm. John loved his wife and family, blessing us all with his insatiable boyish spirit and determination. We will miss you but can't wait to laugh together again. We know you won’t be far away for life goes on and if we call you will always come. There will come a day when it will be our turn to roam, and I am certain you will greet us with a wide smile welcoming us home.
John is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Cheryl Sheu of Fort Myers, FL; two sisters, Deborah Sheu (Jerome Becker) of Fort Myers, FL and Kathleen Policicchio (Michael) of St. Augustine, FL; one brother, Robert Sheu (Frank Classie) of Carlsbad, CA; as well as many extended family members and friends.
No formal services are scheduled at this time.
