Hi my name is Misty Poarch Abercrombie and I'm Camryn Harris's aunt (Dawn's sister). I've only recently heard about Ethan's passing. Ethan was such a kind soul and always so polite. I loved when he would visit us with Camryn. He was so good to her and made her so happy. He will always hold a special place in her heart and in ours. I'm so sorry for your loss. God bless you and you'll be in my prayers.
