In Remembrance.
HENRY STEPHEN ALLRED
Henry Stephen Allred from Plano, TX, gained his angel wings and peacefully departed this life on April 28th, 2024, surrounded by his family. In his brief 14 years, Henry touched the lives of many with his endearing smile and infectious laughter. While his absence leaves a profound void in our lives, we take solace in the belief that he now resides and dines with the angels in heaven.
Henry was a Miracle Athlete for several years. Even though we haven't seen him in a while due to illness he is still very much a part of our family.
ETHAN DACHOWICZ
Ethan Joseph Dachowicz, of Frisco, Texas, gained his angel wings September 17, 2023, at the age of 17. After an 8-week valiant battle, he passed away peacefully at Children’s Medical Center Dallas in the loving arms of his parents.
Ethan was born September 1, 2006, to Joseph and Colleen Dachowicz in Tyler, Texas, along with his beloved twin sister, Emma.
From the moment Ethan was born and throughout his short life, he was loved by everyone who was fortunate enough to know him. He was well-known for his amazing hugs; once he hugged you tight, with his arms around your neck and the purest love in his soul, he had stolen a piece of your heart forever.
Ethan loved family time and being with his sister - from big trips to Disney to movie musicals (Mamma Mia! and The Greatest Showman were favorites!) or hanging at home and cuddling on the couch. His favorite times of all were the daily walks with his daddy to the park. Sometimes he was ready before his daddy and would be at the door jiggling the knob ready to go! He had the most beautiful smile and giggles on these walks.
Ethan played sports with Miracle League for 12 years. While he tried just about every sport offered, his favorites were baseball and basketball. He loved being out on the baseball field with all his friends and buddies. In basketball, there was no greater joy than his buddy racing him down the court to dunk the ball! He felt the joy and love that came from amazing coaches and volunteers and treasured his time with Miracle League.
Ethan also rode horses just about every Saturday for the last 10 years and loved every minute of it. Some days it was 110 degrees, some days it was 20 degrees - he was on that horse and riding whenever he could. He had even learned to trot! It was a joy for his parents to watch him ride and to see him so independent and happy.
Ethan would want other children to experience the same fun and joy he did through riding and sports. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations in Ethan’s name to The Miracle League of Frisco (https://buy.stripe.com/6oEeXn8Mmcdc10s144) or ManeGait Therapeutic Horsemanship in McKinney (http://manegait.org/donation).
Logan was a vibrant young man. He was a senior at Reedy High School in Frisco, TX and an AP student taking half his classes at the local college. He had been accepted at over 10 universities but had decided to pursue a business degree at Baylor University. Logan was also a four-year lacrosse letterman, had become an Eagle Scout, and he enjoyed volunteering and helping those that were less fortunate than him.
In particular, Logan really enjoyed his experience though The Young Men's Service League (YMSL) as a volunteer for several charities. His favorite volunteering effort was as a buddy at The Miracle League of Frisco (MLF) - a charitable sports organization for special needs children from the ages of 5 through 22. MLF was especially impactful for Logan as he loved working with and getting to know the kids as they advanced their experiences with sports.
In November 2019 at the age of 17, and half way through his senior year of high school, Logan was diagnosed with an extremely rare and aggressive cancer, Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT). Logan underwent intense chemotherapy and many medical procedures yet he maintained a positive and focused mind set. He never complained as he understood that facing challenges is not unique to him. This perspective was only further developed though his time with YMSL and his work with MLF.
Logan passed away a short 7 months after diagnosis. In that brief time, he inspired those that walked the road with him by not letting his struggle with cancer define him. Instead, he chose happiness and continued to work towards the goals he had set for himself.
In the spirit of Logan's bravery, faith, and inspiration, all donations in lieu of flowers will be gifted to The Miracle League of Frisco.
Checks may be written and mailed directly to The Miracle League of Frisco, PO Box 2831, Frisco, TX 75034. Please note on the check Logan Strong.
You may also donate through the Go Fund Me link graciously created by Logan's friends and team mates.https://gf.me/u/x79ka2
