We are sad to announce the passing of Sheldon Michael Phelan of Dalton Gardens, Idaho, on Thursday, May 4, 2023, to a tragic motorcycle accident. He was born in Billings, Mont., on Aug. 17, 1993, to Michael Phelan and Cheryl Langton. Sheldon leaves behind his wife, Chelsea Anderson; their four children, Davian Anderson, Carsyn Phelan, Lincoln Phelan and Jameson Phelan; his parents, Michael Phelan and Cheryl Langton; his sister, Rebecca Phelan, and many more family and friends that he loved dearly. At the time of his passing, Sheldon was employed at Ironman Safe Co and he loved his job and those he worked with. Sheldon was a very hard worker and was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need. Sheldon was a very special person to so many people. He loved his family more than anything in the world. He was an amazing partner but more than anything, Sheldon was an incredibly loving, and consistent father to his children. Sheldon was huge into cars and motorcycles and loved to go fast! Sheldon spent a lot of time piecing together his motorcycle from the ground up! He enjoyed giving all of the kids rides around the block; they always had the biggest smiles on their faces! Sheldon lit up any room he walked through with his contagious smile and loud laugh. Sheldon had a truly beautiful soul and a heart of gold! He will be deeply missed by so many people.

Sheldon's service will be held at Bell Tower Funeral Home on Wednesday, May 17, at 1 p.m. We will have a celebration of life for him held Saturday, May 20, 2023, at 6999 N. Colfax St. Dalton Gardens, ID 83815.

In lieu of flowers, there will be a fundraiser and silent auction with all proceeds going to Sheldon's kids for his wife to take care of them for a while. The fundraiser is called "Raising the Phelan's" and will be held Saturday, June 10, 2023, at Curley's 26433 W. Hwy 53, Post Falls, ID. 83854
