Dear Paige, I remember meeting Evan at Bailie’s and Bryann’s baptisms. I was so uplifted when Greer told me he was off the trach and going to the Goddard School. I don’t know why sadness happens. I hope you can cherish his memory with love as you heal. I am so sorry. Nancy Rowe
Evan was such a fighter!! He overcame so much and was getting stronger everyday. I loved working with Evan during his hippotherapy sessions. Evan enjoyed riding the horse. Even when he had had bad traditional therapy sessions, he always participated in hippotherapy to the best of his ability. Evan sat up so straight on that horse. He hated riding backwards as he had to hold his body up on those arms of his, which was so hard. Evan made front page news on his first hippotherapy session. I never could figure out why they used a photo of him crying when 90% of the time he was happy on the horse. I will miss Evan. May he rest in peace. I will remember him alway.\ Tami
God was ready for another Angel and he chose Evan. Cesar and Paige, you were both Blessed to have him even though the time was short but the memories will last forever. May you both continue to remember the joy he brought to into your lives. His light will shine on us all as we remember him.
May God Bless your family sorry for your loss. I will continue to pray for your family.
Paige and Cesar, So very sorry for your loss. I loved little man so much and will always remember his great smile. We will keep you guys in our prayers.
Paige, Cesar & family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Evan was such a loving boy with a great smile. You are in my thoughts & prayers.
Paige, I remember talking about our children on the way to our meeting in Middletown. I am shocked to hear of your terrible news. My prayers and sympathy are with you and your family. My wife always told me I relate to young children because we have the same IQ. Not such a bad thing if you really think about it. I really enjoyed meeting Evan here at work and making him smile.
Paige: I am sorry to hear of your loss. Thoughts and prayers are with you. Stay strong.
Paige: Words can’t express how saddened I am to hear of your loss and now my loss as I have grown to love Evie as part of my own family. I am always here for you when you need me. My love and prayer is with you.
Sweet Evan, I’ll miss seeing your beautiful smile. You touched my heart and inspired me more than you could ever know. I’ll remember you always. To your family, I extend heartfelt sympathy. I hope you’ll find comfort in the special memories you have and in knowing how much Evan was loved by those he knew. With much love, Miss Paula

We will pray that God comforts you at this difficult time and that you find peace knowing he is forever embraced by the angels in heaven. – Our heartfelt condolences –

As a parent, I cannot even imagine what Paige and her family is going through. Words cannot really express what I want to say, I just hope Paige and her family can take comfort in support from friends and family and remember the happy times and that Evan will always be with them in their hearts and memories. He was a gift, an angel I guess God needed one more angel with him.
Dear Carol and family, You have my deepest sympathies on the loss of this little sweetheart. Carol, I remember when you told us at school that Paige had the baby…it was probably one of the most beautiful day of your life. Evan left surrounded by love…and Love is immortal. May your memories give you strenght. Thinking of you. Christelle and Romane Rigoland.
I can not explain what I have felt since I learned of this unforeseen tragedy of a wonderful little boy. I really did not know Evan well but I do know what he meant to his mother, my dear friend Paige. When I met Evan he was as infectious and magical as I imagined from all the stories I had heard through his mother.This news saddens me deeply. My thoughts and prayers are with you Paige and your family. Sweet Evan may you rest in peace and live in the hearts of all that love you forever.
I was very sorry to hear of Evan’s passing, and will pray for him and his family during this difficult time.
