Prudence J. “PJ” Shaver

December 18, 1970 – July 16, 2022

Prudence J. “PJ” Shaver, 51, Fishers, passed away on Saturday, July 16, 2022, at her home. She was born on December 18, 1970, in Anderson, Ind.

PJ was a homemaker and active member of Christ’s Community Church. She enjoyed exercise of all types including her classes at the Fishers location of Burn Boot Camp and walks with her husband, Andy, on the Nickel Plate Trail, always ending with a protein drink from the local Smoothie King.

Through the years, PJ served as a teacher’s aide at Emmanuel United Methodist Church pre-school in Noblesville, as well as part-time roles at New Britton Elementary and Hazel Dell Elementary. She also was a promoter for a healthy lifestyle through the use of Le-Vel Thrive supplements.

Her number-one focus, however, was her family. Whether it be cheering on her youngest daughter, Kaitlyn, at a Fishers High School band concert or marching band performance, PJ was there, often joined by middle daughter, Kristen, a veteran band member herself. Other than an annual vacation to Hilton Head Island, travel was focused on a scenic I-70 drive to St. Louis to visit stepdaughter, Nikki Peters, husband Ryan, and the two grandchildren, Emma and Ellis. Not to be forgotten was her love for the canine members of our family as evidenced by 10-year-old Corgi, Bentley, and four-year-old Swedish Vallhund, Reba.

PJ is survived by her husband of 29 years, Andrew R. Shaver; mother, Joan Walters (John) Rinderknecht; daughters, Kristen N. Shaver, Kaitlyn J. Shaver, and stepdaughter, Nikki A. (Ryan) Peters; stepsister, Jennifer Gallatin; stepbrother, Jason Snodgress; grandchildren, Ellis and Emma Peters; in-laws, Reverend Larry and Carol Shaver; and brother-in-law, Brandon (Sophie) Ruddach.

She was preceded in death by her father, Roger “Duke” Campbell.

Services will be held at 4 p.m. on Saturday, July 23, 2022, at Randall & Roberts Fishers Mortuary, 12010 Allisonville Road, Fishers, with Pastor Nate Pyle officiating. Visitation will be from 1 p.m. to the time of the service at the funeral home.

Memorial contributions may be made in lieu of flowers to Fishers High School (FHS) Band Boosters, P.O. Box 188, Fishers, IN 46038.
