    I love you, I miss you. I’m so angry at the world for this. You used to call me your package and say you had to take your package everywhere with you and so you did. You texted me the night of January 29th but I was asleep.. I won’t ever sleep the same again. And Donna you know Dillon did everything he could to make sure you were okay, he would hate to see you lose yourself okay? Dillon, you used to say that I’m your person and I’d say you were mine. That still stand, until next time my love… Keep my spot up there warm for me. I love you forevermore and I’d give anything to hear you say it back one more time.

    Dillon didn’t even have a chance in the cruel world. I’ve know him since 4th grade and I seen him change a lot. I got to watch him grown from a kid into a teenager, and then to an adult. He was full of love and I will never forget him. He was my best friend, he was my first love. Dillon was a big part of me and will always be.

  15. Molly watkins on February 17, 2022 at 8:17 pm

    I love you Dillon. You deserved so much more than this. I feel so lost and alone I can’t even imagine how your mom or summer are feeling.. I wish you were here I keep waking up and having to remember your not here and it’s not fair. You always made sure to let me know you loved me and I wasn’t alone and I have to keep reminding myself of this to stay sane. I feel like I’m mentally not here, things are so different. I love you please stay close to me and your mom and summer and pebbles and liberty and Tina and Jeff everyone that truly cared and loved you.



  16. Joann Conroy on February 18, 2022 at 6:49 pm

    Dillon I love you sweetie
    I got to see you a lot
    all the weekends you spent with Teresa and Bubby driving me crazy
    You always showed me so much respect. I appreciate it.
    Thank you for the laughs
    The headaches you knew that you were always welcome at the house
    You will be missed
    You were loved by many
    I will do my best to be here for your mom Give Red a big hug for me
    Too young to be gone
    But god only takes the best first.
    So god needed another angel
    I just wish it wasn’t you.
    RIP. Dillon. Love mama J

    On January 30th of this year (the one year mark of u being gone) my boyfriend took me to go get you flowers and a candle & then took me by ur old house ( same house our friendship began ) and I lit the candle & stuck the flowers in the ground and I said a little prayer for you . I’m getting a flour leaf clover tattoo soon , in honor of my dear friend & in honor of the fact that I feel as tho you have something to do with all the luck I’ve received lately . I love you dill pickle , I miss u so god damn much it’s unreal, it’s not everyday you meet a guy who’s genuinely trying to be a friend and nothing more & that was one of my favorite things about our friendship, that that’s all we ever were , we’re friends and I will always appreciate you for that . Until we meet again buddy???
