Emerged passion for life,
A blond boy; strong of heart, mind, and body.
Life an adventure;
He grew from boy to man.
Like a hawk he learned to fly, high above;
a plane’s wings a glow in the summer light.
A sheepdog with sparkling blue eyes protecting his flock,
Now, Ivan’s soul now flies free . . .
An angel of white, protecting us all,
In these pained days and nights.
Know this tiger man,
Mom and Dad and Brother love you with all of our might.
Ivan is survived by his father, Ellis Dean Bingham III Esq.; mother, Yelena Petrovna Gillman; brother, Elias Crane Bingham; sisters, Lauren Bingham, Bianca Yennory and Johanna Bingham; grandfather, Ellis D. Bingham II Col. USA (Ret.); grandmother, Alevtyna Kayuk; and step-mother, Rememdios Vazquez.
A visitation will be held at Rockco Funeral Home in Centreville, Al on June 18, 2024 from 10 am - 11:00 am with a Celebration of Life to follow.
