Why 22? It is the number of years our Heavenly Father waited then called His beloved servant home.
As a child, Ethan was fascinated by the simplicity and building complexity of Lego®. This dualism focused him through the years to develop a curiosity into the polymers that Legos were made from. Chemical engineering and material construction soon became a passion in high school and ultimately directed his path to materials science.
Ethan recently graduated from Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Materials Science and Engineering. He was growing his awareness of the impact of materials on the environment and was set firm to research and engineer solutions that would benefit the world around him. He was blessed to accept a professional job in his major field of study at the time of his passing. He had enjoyed many leadership roles during his short life and his friends and colleagues recall Ethan’s confidence and joy for God and for his life.
