Rex Morgan Sheldt

February 25, 2025

Mr. Rex Morgan Sheldt, aged 69, passed away peacefully at his home on February 21, 2025. He was originally from Willoughby, Ohio, and had previously lived in Painesville, Ohio, before moving to Davisville, Florida, where he resided for the last nine years. His warmth and kindness will be missed by all who knew him.

He loved spending his free time enjoying the great outdoors, whether it was hunting in the crisp morning air or fishing by the quiet lakes. Gardening was another passion of his, especially when it came to growing juicy tomatoes that he often shared with family and friends. In the evenings, he found joy in watching shows like “Swamp People,” “Pawn Stars,” and “Ax Men,” always fascinated by the stories they told. He also had a soft spot for tales of Big Foot, which added a sense of adventure to his downtime. Traveling to Ohio was a regular part of his life, allowing him to stay connected with family while cheering on his favorite football team, the Cleveland Browns. Being surrounded by loved ones during those visits made every moment special.

Mr. Sheldt is survived with loving wife of nine years Terresa Michelle Sheldt of Davisville, Florida; two step-sons, Joey (Maryanne) Palachek of Painesville, Ohio, and Mike (Amber) Palachek of Painesville, Ohio; step-daughter, Bethany Prado of Atmore, Alabama; his dog Max; brother, Steve (Angela) Sheldt of Sierra Vista, Arizona; four sisters, Janet (Dave) King of Madison, Ohio, Cynthia Hendricks of Pensacola, Florida, Paula Dyson of Key West Florida, and Marla Sheldt of Key West, Florida; seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

Petty-Eastside Chapel Funeral Homes, Atmore, AL. is in charge of all arrangements.
