Dylan Joseph Pape

Pape, Dylan J.Dylan Joseph Pape was granted his angel wings on March 21, 2016. Dylan's life would seem too short to many, but those who were touched by him understood that the quality of existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which one lives. His happy smile, contagious laughter, and heart of gold brought so much joy to family and friends. Dylan, as a son, brother, grandson, nephew, uncle, cousin, and friend, gave us all such courage and hope and reminded us of the preciousness of life. Dylan will always be remembered for his kind and gentle nature. He was the epitome of selflessness and always put others before himself. Despite health related struggles throughout his life, he left lasting memories on every person fortunate enough to know him. Dylan heard his call to heaven. Guiding him home will be those gone before him. Grandfathers M. Glenn Pape and Loudwig "Louie" Mirwald. We are comforted in knowing that Dylan is resting in peace having these loved ones with him now. Dylan is survived by parents Linda and Richard Pape, sister Amanda and brother Ryan and his wife Stephanie. He was also the proud uncle to Walker and Miles Pape. Dylan is also survived by grandmothers Patricia Pape and Stephanie Mirwald as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins who loved him dearly.
