Not sure what to say?

Not forgotten.

Dylan was a wonderful young man. He is missed, but he is safe in God's loving arms. Until we meet again.

Brittany, Chelsea, Addi and Jack, 41 years ago, I buried my own infant son and understand this soul crushing heartache that has been inflicted upon you. Some souls are just too pure and lovely to suffer through the vicissitudes and evils of this world and thus, are taken straight to the next world. I promise you that you will meet your brother there, in your respective due times. If it were in my power to do so, I would trade my life for his, to take this burden off of your hearts. As a wise...

Regina and family-My prayers and thoughts are with all who loved Dylan.

Regina, I am so sorry to hear this. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Feb. 11, 2021 Sincere, heartfelt condolences to the family. Extending ALL & MORE of what we/all need. The Book Of Psalm & First John. Thanks for allowing us space to share encouraging words/ expressions. Bless The Lord & God Bless the MICHEAL Family in JESUS name !!!

Our condolences and prayers to the family and friends of Dylan. Such a tragedy to lose this remarkable young man.

While I didn't know Dylan myself, my son had class with him. He told me that Dylan was the only popular kid at school that was nice to him. That is a testament to his character and I wanted to make sure to share that with you. My heart breaks for you and I'm saying prayers for the parents, family and friends.

You are in my pry. I will always remember the sweet little boy that was at Ms Lisa daycare so many years ago.
