Ezekiel's Story

Ezekiel was born with a rare chromosome abnormality, that left him battling several challenges throughout his life. After being diagnosed with epilepsy as an infant, hospitals and doctor visits very quickly became familiar places for him and his family.

But despite the difficult challenges he faced throughout his life, Zeke's tenacious and youthful spirit never faded.

He loved watching yellow school busses go by and dancing under Friday night lights with his high school cheer team. He loved camping at Jellystone and riding in his mom's jeep. But most of all, he loved his "Bear-Bear," and his mother, Lauralee, who devoted her life to be his caretaker. Zeke took his last breath in February of this year, but his legacy of love will live on forever.
