I am so very sorry and sad to learn of Ethan's passing.

 

Dear Lord, please find some way to ease the pain of his family and provide some comfort to them. Not sure how you will do that, but I know you will find a way.

I am sorry to hear of this terrible loss. Our family will continue to remember Ethan's family and friends in our prayers.

Prayers for this young man, family and friends.

I have been reading this for a while now and was just thinking last night that I would try and call the room today and to hear the news is just terrible. I am so sorry for the family and the community that they have lost such a special person. I hope the last couple days with him were great days and we will all be praying.

This news broke my heart! :cry:

 

Prayers go out to the entire community!

Deepest thoughts and prayers go to the entire family and community

Would it be possible to get address to send a card to the family?

Really hate to hear this news. Prayers and angels are with you all in this great time of need.

Would it be possible to get address to send a card to the family?

 

Absolutely...Thank you!

I cannot begin to say how sorry and saddened I was when I got tsyoung's text this morning. Kim and I want to pass our condolences along to Greg and Janie and the entire Monroe County community.

 

I don't think we'll be able to make the visitation or the funeral, but I'm not entirely sure just yet.

 

Tom, as I said in text, please pass my phone number to Greg, if there's a point his day (or night) that he'd like to talk, I'm here to listen.

 

Ethan is missed! Although it doesn't always seem it, through all of the hurt and the pain, but God is still God!

May God be with Ethan's Family and friends. This is a very tough time. I will keep you all in our prayers. God is hand-picking his own football team...sure seems that way!

 

God be with you guys from those of us at Fort Campbell. Text with the information that Monroe County also suffered the loss of a football player flew through many of our kids phones here today. We are all praying for you guys!!!

We have followed Ethan's progress and updates from the first post and we are very saddened by his passing and we know that no words can begin to express how heavy our hearts are for you guys. We want you to know that everyone in Harlan will have you all in our thoughts and prayers in the days to come and hope that through this difficult time that God will comfort you with His grace and strenghthen your whole family in the days ahead.Or prayers with you all. PSALM 121

My heart is just broken with this news. My prayers and thoughts are with his family and friends.

Don't know what to say. Prayers sent for family and friends of this fine young man.

Ever since I got the call this morning my heart has been broke, I have personally went through the gauntlet of emotions the worst of which is feeling guilty for not praying as much as I should have been and for that I'm sorry.

One thing that is very uplifting for me is reading BGP and seeing the outpouring of prayers and support, I hope it gives Greg and Janie the same feeling when they get to read it. It truly give you the feeling of being a part of something bigger than your community, county and state.

As for Ethan, he was very much a big part of his team and his junior class, tsyoung and me have often commented how amazing it is that they are so close, they literally go nowhere without each other and it seems every Friday and Saturday night is spent together often times at tsyoung's house so I know the loss hits them hard as well, which reminds me of a story of when tsyoung had something set to DVR and the boys somehow messed it up, of course Ethan being the obvious smart one of the bunch set out to fix it to no avail (I think Greg might have had tried as well:sssh:) of course it’s important to understand that tsyoung has 8 remotes and I'm not sure a MIT graduate could figure them out, but the point is that Ethan’s memory will remain a part of us and he will live on through his friends and this community and anything Greg and Janie need will not fall on deaf ears, I hope they take solace in knowing that…

Thanks to everyone for the outpouring of prayer and well wishes, God Bless you all…
