TJ Sherwin Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Brown & Sons Funeral Homes & Crematory (26th St. Chapel) - Bradenton on Sep. 10, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

TJ "Tracy" Sherwin, age 43, passed away far too soon on Thursday, September 4, 2025. TJ was born on September 26, 1981, in Belvidere, Illinois. His infectious smile and generous spirit were his trademarks, and his departure leaves a void in the hearts of many.

TJ lived life with a big smile, a kind spirit, and a heart that loved deeply. He was happiest watching his beloved Green Bay Packers, out on the golf course, fishing, and spending time with his family and friends.

He is survived by his parents, Cherise and Steve Sherwin; his sisters, Kaylyn Sherwin (Bob Bonace) and Camaray Simmons (with husband Everet Simmons); his nephews and niece, Luke, Ethan, and Abigail; his grandfather, Les Fildes; along with many loving uncles, aunts, and cousins.

To know TJ was to love him - his quick wit, his loyalty, and the way he could turn any ordinary day into a good one. Whether celebrating a Packers win, casting a line, or sharing a laugh with those he loved, TJ had a way of making every moment memorable. His time here was cut short, but his memory, his laughter, and his love will live on in all of us.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, September 20, 2025, from 1 pm - 3 pm, with words of Remembrance to begin at 1:30 pm followed by refreshments provided by Anna Maria Oyster Bar Landside: 6906 14th St W, Bradenton, FL 34207.

Brown & Sons Funeral Homes & Crematory 26th Street Chapel, 5624 26th Street West, Bradenton, FL 34207, is in charge of arrangements.
