With heavy hearts, we bid farewell to Aiden Ray Sherraden, a beloved son, cherished brother, uncle, cousin, and a young soul who touched the lives of all who knew him. Aiden left this world at the tender age of 11, on July 17, 2024, in Plainville, KS, leaving behind a legacy of love, kindness, and a passion for life that transcended his years.
Aiden was born on November 16, 2012, in Hays, KS, and on December 25, 2015, at the age of 3 he joined his forever family - best Christmas present ever! He brought immense joy and love to his parents, Daryl and Shona (Nicholson) Sherraden. His bond with his sisters was very special. They were not just siblings but his closest companions. He found great comfort and happiness in their presence, sharing countless adventures and lifelong memories together.
One of Aiden's greatest joys in life was fishing. Whether he was casting a line from the shore, exploring new fishing spots with his family, or impatiently waiting for the perfect catch, he found solace and happiness in the serenity of the water. Fishing wasn't just a hobby but a passion that reflected his adventurous spirit and source of peace and happiness.
Beyond his love for fishing, Aiden also loved reptiles – especially frogs and turtles. He enjoyed playing soccer and football, riding his bike, collecting football cards, swinging on his rope swing and his many adventures with Preston. Above all, Aiden cherished every moment spent with his family, whom he loved dearly.
Aiden had a heart as big as the ocean. Always looking to help others, he would go out of his way to lend a helping hand to friends and strangers alike. Although Aiden’s time with us was far too short, the impact he made during his brief journey will forever be remembered. He taught us about love, resilience, and the importance of cherishing every moment. His spirit will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to have known him.
Aiden leaves behind his parents, Daryl and Shona Sherraden of Plainville; sisters, Danielle Sherraden of Hays; Megan Sherraden of Wichita, KS, Paige Sherraden of Lyons, KS, Meairanda Sherraden of Hays, Lili Sherraden of Plainville, and Lexi and Lauren Wolf of Quinter, KS; grandparents, Ronald and Cecilia Sherraden of Garden City, KS and Earlene Nicholson and Keri Hosier (Bruce Turner) of Plainville; niece, Sabrina Ratcliffe; and cousins, Jayde, Keylee and Hunter Hosier of Plainville.
While we grieve his absence, we take comfort in knowing that Aiden is at peace. May his spirit find eternal peace and may he forever fish in the tranquil waters of heaven in the arms of his heavenly father.
A celebration of Aiden’s life will be held on Wednesday, July 24, 2024, at 1PM at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Plainville. Visitation will be on Tuesday, 4PM until 8PM with the family receiving friends 5:30-6:30PM at the funeral home in Plainville.
