RFD-TV family mourns the passing of Eian Robert Sharkey

The RFD-TV family is standing in solidarity with our friends Rob and Emily Sharkey today.

Rob is the host of SharkFarmer on RFD and Rural Radio. His family is reeling after losing their teen son, Eian Robert Sharkey, in a vehicle accident.


Eian would have started his junior year this year. He loved working with his dad and brothers on the family farm and spending time with his sister. His family remembers him always being kind and non-judgemental, and says that his favorite place was in the woods. He had a knack for running equipment and tractors and enjoyed working on his car.


We take this moment to honor the life of Eian Robert Sharkey. Everyone in the RFD-TV and Rural Radio family grieves with the Sharkey family.
