Shane Wheeldon
January 05, 2016
Shane Burton Wheeldon, 41, passed January 5, 2016. He meant so much to everyone in his life. He was a very proud East High alum where he went to state in wrestling and was a great football and baseball player like his dad. He was a passionate ISU and Twins fan. He sucked at golf, but loved it. His favorite place was Las Vegas where he and Amy got married. Shane spent many hours on the baseball fields coaching his boys at Grandview Little League. He was super competitive in everything he did whether bingo with his mom or shooting pool at the Elks Lodge, where he could never beat the old guys. Anyone who knew Shane will have a lifetime of laughs to remember him by.
Shane is survived by his wife, Amy; sons, Cole and Chase Wheeldon; stepson, Zane Zerkle; stepdaughter, Nevi Zerkle; his loving dog, Pepé (Peanut); mom, Linda Dahlin (Lloyd); dad, Tom Wheeldon (Helen); sister, Heather Roering (Craig) and lots of ornery friends and crazy family.
Visitation will be held from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. on Friday, January 8, 2016, at Hamilton’s near Highland Memory Gardens, 121 NW 60th Avenue in Des Moines, with a graveside service to begin at 2:00 p.m. at Highland Memory Gardens Cemetery.
Memorial contributions may be directed to the family in loving memory of Shane.

Amy, Cole and Chase. I am so sorry to hear about your husband and dad. My prayers are with you. I have not seen you all in years and it seems like not to long ago you two boys were little when I use to help babysit you. Your dad was a kind man and great friend. My heart breaks for all of you. RIP Shane
