Shad Porter Fox was born in Indianapolis, Indiana on October 7, 1974, son of Robert L. Fox and Nyla J. Fox (Porter).  Shad was a 1993 graduate of Speedway High School where he was active in football, baseball, and soccer.  Shad attended Marian College in Indianapolis where he met his wife of 23 years, Gina Fox (Becker).  Shad and Gina were married on May 18, 1996.  Together they were raising three beautiful children, Elizabeth Fox, Zachary Fox, and Ethan Fox in Indianapolis, Indiana.

 

Shad was employed by Citizens Energy Group as a Revenue Assurance Specialist.  He also served as First Vice Commander for the Sons of the American Legion, Post 497.  Shad was a long-time member of the IPB Club where he enjoyed watching the Colts, IU, Pacers, and racing with his friends.  His favorite phrase was “Just one more.” 

 

Shad was a big supporter of Ben Davis Athletics where his children participated in cheerleading, football, and baseball.  He was extremely proud of his children's accomplishments.  He loved traveling anywhere where there was sunshine and a beach. 

 

Shad is survived by his wife, Gina Fox; daughter, Elizabeth Fox; sons, Zachary Fox and Ethan Fox; mother, Nyla Fox (Porter); father and step-mother, Bob and Lynne Fox; sister, Shawna Fox; as well as many aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

Through Mark and Donna Price we met Shad a few times. It has been several years, since we've seen him. Mark contacted us yesterday with the sad news of Shad's passing. Please know that family, extended family and friends are being kept close in thought and prayer, as you travel this journey called grief and healing. From our hearts to yours, with sympathy.

Shad was way too young for this to have happened. Now our thoughts are turned to Gina (whom we met when she was in a Kirk and Nicole’s wedding) Elizabeth, Zach and Ethan, especially that they find the strength to continue with all their good endeavors. All prayers and good thoughts being sent your way. Anne and Ken Beasley.
