Northfielders Jeff and Leanne Stremcha have created a legacy fund in honor of their son Shea who would have turned 26 years old today. This flyer, Honoring Shea Stremcha: a Lasting Legacy (PDF), has the details:
The fund will support community building with emphases on improving financial literacy and support for the arts—goals that were important to Shea. We hope the fund can become a permanent legacy of Shea’s generous spirit.
We would be especially honored to have family and friends consider making contributions to Shea’s Legacy Fund as part of their annual charitable giving as a way to help remember Shea.
Visit the Shea Stremcha Legacy Fund page on the Minneapolis Foundation’s website to make a donation.
Jeff and Leanne also want to make available the text of the eulogy (PDF) delivered by Shea’s brother Jesse.
To help mark the occasion of our beloved Shea’s 26th birthday this Friday, his parents and siblings invite all of Shea’s family and friends to reflect, in some personal way, on how he touched their lives.
To help us remember and honor him, we have decided to publish the eulogy delivered by his brother, Jesse, at Shea’s remembrance and burial service on July 26.
The recent email from Shea’s parents, Jeff and Leanne Stremcha, included an update on the Shea Stremcha Legacy Fund:
Jeff Stremcha emailed me this announcement. It’s a nice touch for Ameriprise to name the annual award after Shea.
