Diane and Rick,  today I learned of Lance's death. I am so sorry that you had to experience the loss of your child.  I can remember well how happy you were when you finally conceived, and when he finally arrived.  He was such a handsome young man.  The pain to lose once child is unbearable  and it seems to never go away. Although we will never forget, over time the pain becomes less intense.  Again, my heart goes out to you. May God give you the strength to  heal from this sad loss.
You are in my heart. Ursula

Diane and Rick, just learned of Lance’s passing. So sorry this has happened to you. He was entirely too young.

Am so saddened for you both...remember watching him grow up over the years... handsome young man... he’s at rest now... wishing you peace. ...Monica

Our deepest sympathy Rick and Diane.  We were shocked when we read about Lance.  We pray that you will find peace.  He was a good son and always had a big smile. 


Jennie and I are sending our prayers and love for Lance and all your family. Lance was someone who made a positive impression upon all who met him. His bright smile and playful attitude will be remembered and live on in the hearts of all those who had the opportunity to meet him.
Lance, I will never forget playing hoops alongside you-some of the most treasured times of my life. Rest easy, my friend. 

Dear Diane and Rick,

We were so shocked and saddened to hear of Lance's passing. He always had a smile on his face and a kind word for everyone.  We will remember all the great times spent at Bobcat games. Our prayers to all, 

Curt and Patti Dreiling

The Hansen family is saddened to hear of Lance's passing. We were, and are, like a big extended family.

Mumford Family: They are not supposed to pass so young & before their teachers much less their parents. Blessed athlete & student of psychology, Lance  could never be forgotten. Who liked the Mustangs more, Dad or son? God help you all in this time of sorrow & remember  the great times in the Lair of the Bobcats basketball arena.

I am so sad to hear of your loss.  Our family has fond memories of Lance. When kids would gather at our home, he always had time to sit and talk with Paul and I. He had a good heart. 
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Oh Lance, I am saddened to hear about your passing, I hope that you are finally resting peacefully. I will never forget all the fun time we shared at EPHS - you were so supportive and brotherly. I always loved cheering you on at basketball games, and laughing in the dug-out during baseball season. You were a good friend, a great son, and you always gave great advice and strong hugs. Memories of running around town in the Mustangs, nights at MacGregor Ranch, and of course our pie dates will stay with me forever. Rest easy Lancey Pants, until we meet again. 

Rick and Diane, 
I have so many wonderful memories with Lance, as does the entire Brown family. Whenever I hear Nelly, I will always picture him driving the jeep, with the windows down.  He was a good friend with a great laugh. We will miss him. Praying for peace and comfort.
Love, Briana Ricketts (Brown) and family
