Brandon Sheets revealed that he does plan on reopening his dad Darrell Sheets’ antique business, following the “Storage Wars” star’s death at age 67 in April.
“We appreciate all concerns and condolences,” Brandon wrote on his late father’s Instagram page on Monday. “We do Plan to reopen ‘Lake Havasu’s Show me your Junk.’”
The reality star, 42, asked the public to “allow some time” so the family can grieve, adding that there is “no exact date set at this time” for when the Arizona shop will be up and running again.
“We appreciate all our ‘Storage Wars’ fans!” Brandon’s message continued, noting that the store will “be back BIGGER and BETTER than ever!”
“Just remember it is all of you that make up ‘The Wow Factor Baby,’” Brandon gushed. “We love and appreciate all the positive energy.”
Beneath the caption, Brandon included a shot of Darrell posing behind the counter of his store.
In an Instagram Story, the former television personality confirmed that while Show me your Junk is “not open yet” they are in the “planning” process.
As of now, the small business is currently listed as “temporarily closed” on Google.
Brandon and Darrell rose to fame on the hit reality show “Storage Wars” — which follows professional buyers who bid on unknown contents found in abandoned storage units — in 2010.
Brandon appeared on the series with his dad throughout the first 10 seasons while Darrell continued on the A&E series until Season 15 in 2023.
The late TV personality was featured in 163 episodes total, earning the nickname “The Gambler,” for his trait of overbidding on units based on a gut instinct.
After the show, Darrell retired to Arizona to run his antique business.
Darrell was found dead on April 22 of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
Last month, the Mohave County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed he died by suicide.
After news of his passing broke, the A&E star’s fellow “Storage Wars” castmates Laura and Dan Dotson claimed that before he died, Darrell feared for his life due to alleged cyberbullying.
“His family told us that this has been happening for three years,” Laura told Us Weekly at the time. “[It happens to] even strong men that you think aren’t gonna get their feelings hurt. Cyberbullying is a real thing.”
Weeks before his death, Darrell spoke out about the alleged cyberbullies in a Facebook post, according to the outlet.
At the time, he said that his “cyberbully stalker” had harassed others in the area as well.
Sergeant Kyle Ridgway, public information officer for the Lake Havasu City Police Department in Arizona, previously told Page Six, “We are aware of these cyberbullying accusations and that is a part of the active investigation.”
Brandon, meanwhile, took to social media to pen a touching tribute to Darrell after his suicide.
“My heart is so broken….I love you Dad and I will do my best to live in your honor and respect our Family,” he penned via Instagram, alongside a shot of himself and his father wearing Medieval Times crowns.
“Let’s all continue to build those memories and keep the legacy that is ‘Darrell (The Gambler) Sheets,” Brandon added.
