Obituary
Sherod Lindsey of Mission Viejo, California, passed away on October 9, 2021, with his wife by his side. He was 50 years old.
Sherod was a man who was larger than life. He always had a smile on his face and a Coke in his hand. He was fiercely devoted to his family and a loyal friend. Easy to laugh and quick to help, he was an icon in the community. He always had the right tools on hand to assist in any project.
Sherod loved to go RVing, hunting, and spend time with family and friends. A car enthusiast, he enjoyed taking his 1959 Ford panel truck to car shows and charity events. His greatest joy was passing on his love of cars to his son, Connor.
Sherod is survived by his wife, Jenny; his son, Connor; and extended family and close friends. His daughter, Savannah, passed away in 2018. We take comfort in that he is finally at peace and has been reunited with her.

I’m all out of fight lyrics – Pink!
We had life in our eyes and the world was on our side
speeding along with no map, it was all green lights
It was just you and I
When something dies, doesn’t mean that its over
We’re not like them, we don’t have to be cold as ice
We could be you and I
So take my hand for the last time
And find my eyes with yours
I’m all out of fight
My heart will always know your name
I’m all out of love
But look at all the love we made
I’m all out of life
Oh, Babe, it’s killing me to say
I’m all out of love, I’m all out of life
I’m all out of fight.
We were two broken parts from the same old junkyard
Battered and bruised and we tried so goddamn hard
To be you and I
I’m proud of us, babe, ’cause we held through the pain
And when everything hurt, we still ran through the rain and the night
That was you and I
So come here close for the last time
Put your heart on mine
I’m all out of fight
My heart will always know your name
I’m all out of love
But look at all the love we made
I’m all out of love, I’m all out of life
I’m all out of fight.
I never asked for easy
But it shouldn’t be this hard
I’m all out of fight
My heart will always know your name

I met Sherod selling Motorhomes at MTRV about two decades ago and we lost touch after my crazy ass moved away to the mountains. A couple weeks ago I was in town and went to the country bar where we would always go every week– and where he met his wife, Jen. I remember our great times working and hanging out together, going country dancing, and driving around in his big red truck. Sherod was like another older brother to me– always willing to lend a hand and give me great life, career, and relationship advice.
What I miss the most about Sherod is his hilarious sense of humor, bravado, and unwillingness to take crap from anyone, and the time we could have spent together catching up if I had merely kept in touch and called once in a while.
I learned about a year ago that he passed away and I felt awful for losing touch because we used to be such close friends. Since learning of his death, I have been thinking for a long about what to write here. I cried my ass off when someone we both knew told me that he had died and I found this obituary online.
My heart goes out to Jen and Connor. The man I am today is the result of my friendship with Sherod, his counseling, and his guidance. He would be proud to know that I became a cop like his dear wife too.
I miss you brother.

The post was worth the wait. Thank you for such a great tribute to Sherod. He would be so very proud of you. I know he’s riding shotgun, helping to keep you safe out there.

I miss you more every day little big brother. I keep waiting for the pain to lessen, I guess I’ll keep waiting. I love you. Your Sister, Yvette
