Storage Wars star Darrell Sheets’ ex-wife, Kimber Wuerfel, paid tribute to her ex-husband recently in the wake of his death.
Wuerfel broke her silence about Sheets on Instagram on April 30, following his death by suicide on April 22.
“I haven’t had the words until now,” the 58-year-old real estate agent based in Orange County, California, wrote alongside a montage featuring Sheets. “Thank you for all the love, prayers, and condolences; it has meant more than I can say.”
“Darrell gave us so many moments of laughter, connection, and life. May the memories you hold of him stay close to your heart, as mine will stay with me forever,” Wuerfel added.
Police found the fan favorite reality personality dead from an apparent suicide at a residence in Arizona. An autopsy revealed the 67-year-old did not have any drugs in his system. Sheets was a buyer on the first 15 seasons of the A&E series, where professional buyers bid on auctioned storage lockers, hoping to find valuable items.
