“Storage Wars†star Darrell Sheets' ex-wife Kimber Wuerfel spoke out nearly two weeks after his tragic death.
“I haven't had the words until now,†she wrote via Instagram Thursday alongside a slideshow of photos of them together. “Thank you for all the love, prayers, and condolences, it has meant more than I can say.
“Darrell gave us so many moments of laughter, connection, and life. May the memories you hold of him stay close to your heart, as mine will stay with me forever.
“From our family to yours, thank you. We will make an announcement in the future, for those who wish to participate in a service.â€
The reality TV star was found dead in his home in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, on April 22. He was 67.
According to a press release from the Lake Havasu City Police Department, Sheets died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

“Darrell has been posting a lot about the guy that's been cyberbullying him and tormenting him, and I really hope [law enforcement] look into that guy and it's just not a pass,†he added.
