Captain Oakley Fire Department
Irving Sherman Obituary
Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 1, 2023.
Our beloved Irving (Irv) Raymond Sherman passed away peacefully in his home on the 27th of September 2023 at the age of 83. Irv left behind a lasting impact on his family, friends, and community that cannot begin to be measured. He is survived by his wife, Carolyn (married in1978), as well as their three children, Robert Page Sr. (Janice), Laura Molnar (Dave), and Daniel Sherman (Cathy). Irv deeply loved his grandchildren, Robert Page Ir., Shelly Page, Michalah Sherman, Logan Molnar, Brett Molnar, Brandon Molnar, and Alissa Sherman. He was also a proud great-grandfather to Cambria Kalafatis and Kinsley Kalafatis.
As an avid outdoorsman with a passion to serve his community, Irv wore many hats; not only was he a farmer with skill in tractor service, but he was humbled to be part of the Oakley Fire Department for 48 years, with many of those years being served as Captain. Irv also dedicated 48 years as a UA Local 159 Plumber, which just demonstrates his commitment to all he set his mind to.
He was a man of many passions, honors, and names. Irv was known by friends and family as Dad, Grandpa, Pops, Papa, Huge Papa, Big Papa, Bigfoot, Chub, and Plumber. He responded to each of those names with a smile on his face and joy in his heart.
It was no secret that Irv loved deer and elk hunting, along with camping and spending time with his family. Growing up, Irv always involved himself in projects - small and large. He prided himself in assisting his children with the 1-H animals they had. On top of that, he also helped with FFA (including Christmas trees), the fairgrounds, and the Farm Bureau. Irv's presence was always known in the community, which is ultimately what awarded him as Oakley's Citizen of the Year in 2011. He had a special way of touching lives in more ways than one.
In the belief of Irving Raymond Sher-man, the final word is always, "Yes, Dear."
