Rowen Wade Gilstrap

Our perfect baby boy, Rowen Wade Gilstrap, was born on November 13, 2022, at 12:35 a.m. at EIRMC to parents Shantel and Konnor Gilstrap. He spent the next two weeks at the EIRMC NICU showing everybody his strength and courage. Our sweet baby was called back to heaven on November 26, 2022.

He is survived by his parents, his twin brother Hudson Gilstrap, his grandparents; Jeanette Vincent (Mark Wethington), Darwin Hendricks, Dave and Andrea Gilstrap, Great Grandmothers; Jone Vincent and Janet Scott, Aunt LaShae Hendricks, Uncles; Drake Hendricks and Tyler Gilstrap, as well as his cousins and the rest of his loving family.

Rowen gave us a lifetime of love during his short time on earth. His sweet and spunky personality shined through to everyone that interacted with him. We know that you'll watch over your brother to make sure that he keeps on Rowen. Thank you for choosing us to be your parents. We love you forever.
