Eddie Guerrero’s daughter Sherilyn says losing her father hasn’t gotten any easier after 21 years. In fact, she says the pain has only gotten worse as time passes, despite all the memories she still holds onto from their time together.
On November 13, 2026, the 21st anniversary of Eddie Guerrero’s death, Sherilyn took to Instagram to explain how much she still struggles with losing her dad. She admitted that every passing year makes his absence harder to deal with, even though his memory remains a huge part of her life.
“I love you. It doesn’t get easier, it always gets harder but your spirit being so alive makes it all okay.”
Sherilyn also shared some of her favorite childhood memories with Eddie, including falling asleep on his lap while he played Madden, watching movies together and getting to steer the car when she was little. She remembered how he would come home exhausted from wrestling on the road but still make time to watch his daughters perform for him.
“In a quiet world. It’s just you and I. It’s falling asleep on your lap while you played Madden. It’s you letting me steer the wheel when I was a kid to let me drive. It was the pallets we made as a family and the memories we made watching movie after movie. It was putting on concerts for you and mom when you came back from the road and you watched and clapped even though you were so tired.”
Sherilyn made it clear that the Eddie Guerrero she remembers isn’t just the WWE Superstar fans watched on television. While millions knew him as Latino Heat, she knew him as the father who spent time with his daughters whenever he could.
“The man you were to everyone was more then that of the man at home I knew that my sisters and I called dad.”
Eddie passed away on November 13, 2005, at just 38 years old. Sherilyn was still a child when she lost him, and 21 years later, she’s still dealing with that loss. She also paid tribute to her father on what would have been his birthday in October, making it clear that she continues to remember and honor him.
Sherilyn is now preparing to follow in Eddie’s footsteps as a professional wrestler, but that doesn’t change how much she wishes he were still here. Her latest message makes it clear that even after more than two decades, losing her dad is something that continues to get harder, not easier.
