Justin Randall Shideler, age 28, of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and formerly of Sioux City and Sioux Rapids, Iowa, died on Friday, December 9, 2016, at the Avera McKennan Hospital in Sioux Falls.

Justin Shideler, a son of Randall and Jill (Edwardson) Shideler, was born in Storm Lake, Iowa, on March 21, 1988. Baptized and confirmed at the First United Church in Sioux Rapids, he grew up in Sioux Rapids with his brother, Jason, and his sister, Carly. He attended Sioux Central School, graduating with the Class of 2007. While in high school, he excelled in sports, participating in football, wrestling, and weightlifting. He continued his education at Morningside College in Sioux City where he earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration. While in college, he became a linebacker for the Morningside football team.

Then, Justin accepted managerial positions with Wal-Mart and J. C. Penney. Next, he began a career in sales with Federated Insurance. He had, just recently, moved to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where he worked for Thompson Electric.

Passionate about life, Justin had several special interests, his favorites including powerlifting, playing the guitar and singing, collecting guns, and working as a disc jockey. A determined young man who, also, tried to become a mechanic, he, to his regret, did not always succeed. Nonetheless, he had a special gift with children and enjoyed playing with them.
