Easton “E” Dean Wilsey was born May 12, 2014, to Brooke and John Ross Wilsey and into anamazing community of family and friends who loved and adored him dearly.
Easton was a fantastic athlete just like his parents, Aunt Taylor, Uncle Michael, Grandpa Lonnie and many others before them. He excelled in football and baseball but found his true love in wrestling where he, Brooke, John Ross and little sister Avery spent so many of their weekends. They also loved swimming in Grandma Debbie’s and Grandma Andy’s pools on hot summer days and watching the Royal Giants win a game or two.
Not only was E an amazing athlete but excelled in school as well. He had perfect attendance and was super diligent about his schoolwork, ensuring all homework was done and all tests were studied for. As a 4th grade student at Prairieview-Ogden Elementary School, he was a role model and beloved by students and teachers alike.
Easton’s most amazing attribute, however, lay within his heart. His patience and empathy were never-ending, and he cared for everyone. Most of all, he was genuine at heart and in mind. He was simply one of the most amazing individuals that his family and friends had the pleasure of knowing.
Easton is survived by his parents, sister Avery Wilsey, maternal grandmother Debbie Freeman, paternal grandparents Andy & Randy Cooper and Jeff & Judy Wilsey, uncle Micheal (Gabi) Wilsey, aunts Missy (Ronnie) Siegel, Jennifer (Chad) Duncan, Taylor (Ryan) Bird, Megan (Kyle) Zindars, cousins, Addi Siegel, Raylin and Nash Duncan, Tayleigh and Josie Bird, Kopelan Wilsey, and Caden and Casen Zindars, and, Godparents Jennifer Acton and Tyler Flessner, numerous great aunts, uncles and cousins along with more friends and family than can be counted. He was preceded in death by grandfather Lonnie Freeman, great grandfather Dean “Dean-O” Pearson, great grandparents Dick and Joyce Freeman, Marjorie and Clifford Wilsey and Patricia and Earl “Bud” Schneider, uncle Larry Freeman, great uncle Jim Wilsey and cousin Shandy Wilsey.
Easton was taken from us all too soon. While we are heartbroken and will never understand the how’s or why’s of the event that lead to this, there is one thing that we do know and that is Easton is in a far better place than the rest of us.
E, until we see you again, please say hi to Grandma Jocey, Grandpa Dick, Grandpa Dean-O, Grandpa Lonskie, Uncle Jim, Cousin Shandy and Uncle Lars. Also, please keep all of them in line as we can all only guess what kind of trouble that group is causing up there.
Until next time, Buddy, we love you.

Happy birthday E! We enjoyed celebrating together this morning! Can’t believe you would have been 12 today. We miss your smile, kindness, and goofy ways! Each year we’ll continue to gather to celebrate you and keep your memory alive!
Happy 12th heavenly birthday
Today you would be 12—your golden birthday, Easton. 💚 It’s so hard to put into words how much we miss you every single day. Not a day goes by that we don’t think about you, wish for you, or feel that space where you should be. Your kind heart, your contagious smile, and your silly jokes brought so much light into our lives. You made everything better just by being you, and that is something we will hold onto forever. I find myself wondering what today would look like celebrating you, watching you grow, hearing your laugh again. I would give anything for that. Being your mom is still the greatest gift of my life and loving you will never stop. Happy heavenly golden birthday, my sweet boy. We love you more than words can ever say and miss you beyond measure. 💚
