Ivan enjoyed playing World of Warcraft and his Xbox, listening 'screaming' to music, hanging out with his friends and texting them if unable to hang out, driving and was looking forward to a road trip after he graduated.

Ivan was in my science class last year and became a quick friend. He would always make me smile and brought me out of my shy shell. He will truly be missed.
