Dylan Michael Ford, 2, was born Dec. 9, 2009, in Springfield, the son of LLoyd D. Ford and KC Angus, Buffalo. He died Feb. 29, 2012, at his home in Buffalo.

He was known to many as Pickles and was thought of as a fruit loop in a world full of Cheerios.

He was able to bring sunshine to any cloudy day. A bright smile and contagious laugh brought so much joy to everyone who knew him.

He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Robin Ford; and great-grandparents, Bertin and Helen Ford.

Survivors include his parents; his twin sister, Elliana Rose Ford; brothers: Andrew LLoyd Ford, Jonathan Charles “Chuck” Gordon and Ben Exe; his grandparents: Cindy Byrd, California, and Dale L. Ford Sr., Buffalo; his aunt, Kimmy, California; uncles: Joshua McCommon, Alaska, and Wessy Rankin, Ozark; and many family and friends who will greatly miss him.
