Obituary: Corning, Wyatt Michael
Age 1
Wyatt was the first baby of the year born February 2, 2014, Superbowl Sunday and Groundhog Day, at Newport Community Hospi- tal and joined proud, loving parents Alan and Kelly and big brother Ryder.
Wyatt was taken too soon.
He was the most beautiful, spirited, happy little boy.
Wyatt loved life.
He spent his days just being so busy!
He loved digging in the dirt, climbing hills, throwing rocks, coloring on his whiteboard, pushing his shopping cart, playing and learning from his big brother Ryder, going on outdoor adventures with daddy and learning how to be a man, and most of all being mommy’s little shadow.
He followed mommy everywhere and always wanted to be in her presence.
Wyatt was born a little piggy, and that never changed!
He loved to eat!
He wasn’t the least bit picky and would eat just about anything you’d put in front of him…just like his mommy!
Wyatt loved to dance to his mugic “music”.
No matter where he was or what he was doing he would stop and bust a move!
He would hear music in the grocery store and start bobbing and swaying in the cart!
Wyatt was a very smart little boy.
At 18 months he was fully potty trained, and with his brothers teaching knew how to count to 10.
He was already speaking full sentences… “Daddy hunting elk.”
Wyatt came into this world a loud, screaming, colicky baby.
Though the colic went away, his loud “man voice” (as friends would say) never did.
Wyatt was like his Grandpa Ken and Oma Gretta…his presence and feelings were always known.
Wyatt was a bold, strong, confident little boy.
Although he was the little brother, he already was taking on the role of the protective, brave big brother.
When Ryder was too scared to go into his room alone to get his blankeys, or too afraid of the monsters in the bathroom, Wyatt would go with him to keep him safe.
Wyatt will be in our hearts forever.
Until the day Jesus comes again and we can hold him.
He had a strong, loving, tight-knit family that will miss him, but will continue his legacy.
Grandpa Ken, Grandma Arlene, Opa Bill, Oma Gretta, Aunty Sarah, Uncle David, Aunt Amanda, Uncle Andrew, Aunties Nicky and Melanie, Uncle Caycay “Casey” and family, great Grandpa and Grandma Friesz, great Grandpa and Grandma Herman, great Grandma Corning, cousins Tanner and Taylor, Jason, Ellie, and Jamisen, and so many other important great aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
A Memorial Service will be held Saturday, October 3rd, 2015 at 11AM at the Pine Ridge Community Church with a Celebration of Life/Reception to follow at the family home located at 34818 N. Blanchard Creek Road Newport, WA.
Absolutely everyone is welcome to come and celebrate and remember Wyatt.
Rest in peace sweet baby.
Until the day we will see you again.
