Dear Nadine,
Dylan was a delightful addition to our family. We remember the day of his and Autumn's wedding and how glad we were to welcome him into our family. We will always remember him that way: Sincere, kind, and always trying to help someone. We loved him.

Dear Nadine, Fawn and all of Dylan's family,
All our love and sympathy to you on the loss of your dear and wonderful Dylan. We saw him briefly lately when he visited on his motorized skateboard. We will always remember his dedication and hard work on his and Toby's ramp in our back yard on Pennsylvania Ave., and all the fun it provided for the neighborhood. You were always such a loving and suportive family to Dylan and his friends. We know he suffered a lot and we are so sorry to lose him.
Love from the whole Paige family,
Cookie, Roger, Nathan, ZeeZee, Toby, and Theo.
