Robert Drew Sheridan, 40, of Benton, AR, went to be with the Lord on September 28, 2025.Drew was born April 4, 1985, to Robert “Rob” Sheridan and the late Cherie (Brown) Sheridan.
Drew worked as both an electrician and an HVAC technician, and he was not only skilled in his trade but always ready to lend a hand to others. His big heart shone through in the way he loved those around him. Drew found joy in the simple things: fishing, going on “Sasquatch” adventures with his dad, being outdoors, and driving his truck. Above all, he loved his dog, Ray, who was more like a child to him. Wherever Drew went, Ray was sure to be by his side.
Drew was preceded in death by his mother, Cherie (Brown) Sheridan, and brother River Dale Sheridan.
Drew is survived by his father, Robert “Rob” Sheridan, son, Tyler Grant, sister, Rebecca Sheridan; and grandmother, Ruth A. Hunter; as well as numerous nieces and nephews, family, and friends who will miss him dearly.
