Ian... words can not express the sorrow and pain I feel. Even though at the time you were 5 years old, I smile and laugh thinking about you driving (steering) my old hot rod. I had hoped to give it to you one day...you have always been a bigger man than me. Forever in my heart- Uncle Jason

Ian...how do I choose in just words to express how much I love, admire, and miss you? The thing with you and I was, we didn't have to. We could just look at eachother and already know, thats how best friends work. You are gone from this world, but remain in my heart in soul for the rest of time. Not one day will go by without me thinking of you and the good times we had that people only read and dream about. Ian Kocurek, there is not one person in this world that could hold a candle to what you have done for me, you know what I am talking about. You went out with more heart and soul than people that live hundreds of years. This world wasn't ready for someone like you Ian...see you soon buddy. Cowards die thousands of deaths, soldiers die but once. Rest easy Ian.

Ian was such a wonderful person. He was a constant smiling face! It burdens my heart that his time has been cut so short. We all know Ian was such a free spirit and he will always be with us!

Ian, you were such a good person. You will be dearly missed. I remember training you at Nutty Brown, and I wish I could go back to then and tell you good-bye. You are in a better place now and in Gods hands. Take care.
