As our lives have been completely changed and hearts search for healing with the passing of Ethan Nathaniel Dow, who left us on April 20th, 2024. Ethan was a remarkable, one-of-a-kind, beat to his own kind of song young man who touched the lives of many during his brief stay with us of 22 years. His passing has left a deep sense of loss in our hearts, and our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected during this challenging time.
Ethan was a vibrant, caring, generous infectious soul who lived his life to the fullest and on his own terms. His infectious laughter, and smile, his boundless energy, and unconditional love for all things unusual and being impactful for those less fortunate, the misfits of the world, he was courageous enough not to care what people thought while helping these kinds of souls. He had a way of brightening up any room he entered and was always your biggest champion and encourager in the best of times but mostly in your hardest times. Without a shout of doubt, the heart that he had was always consistent in kindness, generosity, and he was the bravest young man who couldn't help but inspire those around him with his boldness and daring spirit.
Ethan will be remembered for many of these great things. He had a remarkable ability to live in the present moment and was an action-packed character type of person. He enjoyed the WW2 history, his video games, and had a crazy, amazing, unusual sense of humor; (Ethan Style). Ethan had a unique gift of making everyone feel special and valued. His absence will be deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
We know that Ethan's passing is a great loss to those who love him, and we offer our deepest condolences. We hope that the memories of his charm, humor, and kindness will bring comfort to those who knew him and that his spirit will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of all who loved him.
A celebration of Ethan's life will be held at Elevating Life Church, 16756 County Road 18 in Fort Morgan on Saturday, May 4th (May the 4th be with you, Ethan) at 11:00 AM, followed by a reception.
