On May 31, 1980, Werner and Melanie Schmitt welcomed a beautiful baby boy, Dylan Werner Schmitt, into this world, in Rexburg, Idaho. For the next 31 years Dylan would touch many lives.
Dylan passed away Tuesday, June 28, 2011, at St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise, Idaho.
As a young boy, Dylan fell in love with the lifestyle and serenity of the family farm in Monteview. This is where he learned many lessons in his life. He especially loved spending time at Birch Creek. We will treasure the many memories of campouts, fishing, motorcycle riding and especially snowmobiling together. The Lemhi Range's sunsets brought solitude and peacefulness to Dylan. Family meant so much to him. He adored his family and friends and helped so many of us. Losing his unconditional love and caring heart will be dearly missed by all who have known him.
Dylan is survived by his daughter Deija Ann, fiancé, Molly Schmidt, and her children, Maiya and Justus, father, Werner Schmitt, mother, Melanie Schmitt, siblings, Jessie (Eric) Schmitt-Blake, Jamie Schmitt, Chance Park, Shawn, Michael, and Alicia Schmitt, Jake, Joanna, and Emily Xavier, Niece, Jazman Lopez, Grandmothers, Marolyn McCormick and Sheila McCormick. He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Clyde McCormick, Sylvester and Irene Schmitt, and an uncle, Alex Humphries.
Family members would like to personally thank the many friends for your kind words and kind deeds during this difficult time.
Funeral Services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Saturday, July 2, 2011, at Calvary Chapel Church, 4250 South 25th East, Idaho Falls, with Pastor Rick Brown officiating. The family will receive friends for one hour prior to the services at the church.
Family and friends will meet at the West Jefferson Cemetery in Mud Lake immediately following the services, with a luncheon following at the West Jefferson Senior Citizen Center.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Dylan Schmitt Memorial Fund through any Wells Fargo Bank, for funeral expenses and a headstone.
