We didn’t know Ian well, but enough to know what a great young man he was. He was our server at several restaurants. We would ask for him and he was always very kind and fun, but always professional. We had nice chats as he was very affable. What a wonderful soul taken way too soon. May God bless his family and friends.
So very sorry for your loss our prayers are with you
Deepest sympathy.
Missing you today Ian ❤️
We think of you every day and the joy you brought into everybody you met.
We will keep your memory alive until the end of our days.
Forgot to mention that our son Ian- who was named after you- seems to have been blessed with humor, kindness, and mischief- which we assume is a gift from you ❤️
