ETHAN DAWSON BYERS, Infant
LAKELAND - Ethan was taken into the arms of the Good Lord on May 21, 2011. He was born on April 21, 2011 at 8:05am, surprising his parents by arriving 8 weeks early, weighing 3 pounds 15 oz and measuring 17 inches long. He touched the lives of many and will be dearly missed. Ethan gave his family a lifetime of love during his short time with us on Earth.
Ethan is survived by loving parents, Terry & Jaimey Byers; a big sister, Alexiah; maternal grandparents, Dolly O'Conner and Jordan Fiesta, and Lionel O'Conner in Lake Charles, LA, paternal grandparents, Jeff & Debbie Byers; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
May God hold you tightly in his arms and keep you safe as you watch over your family as a guardian angel. Ethan, our precious baby boy, you will never be forgotten. You will always be close to our hearts and our love for you will continue to grow with every passing moment. We miss you and know you will meet us with Jesus at the gates of Heaven.
Memorial Services will be held at the Philippine International Christian Fellowship, 1010 E. Memorial Blvd in Lakeland. Visitation will be Thurs. from 6pm-7pm with services beginning at 7pm.

Dear Jaimey, Terry and Polly,
We have been in Morocco visiting Katy and Chris and just saw the sad news in the paper. We just want to put our arms around you and try to give some comfort. You have been in our lives for so long that we are mouring the loss of little Ethan with you and our hearts ache for you. We are so sorry. Please be comforted knowing he is in the Lords arms. Be there for each other and we will be there for you if you need anything and I mean anything. All our love and sympathy, Bruce and Vicki
