Dylan was born Jan. 24, 1991, in Medford to Robert Jr. and Lisa (Bergerson) DeCaire. He attended grade school in Dorchester then later at Colby Middle School. Dylan was currently a junior at Colby High School. He was employed parttime at Kramer's County Market as a cashier. When Dylan was not at school or working, he loved his football and basketball almost as much as he loved his hunting and fishing. Nothing was more important than spending time with his family and his friends.

He is further survived by his maternal grandparents, Bonnie (Ray) Hill and James (Carol) Bergerson, all of L'Anse, Mich.; and his paternal grandparents, Robert Sr. (Carol) DeCaire, of Owen; and his great-grandparents Matt (Rose) Toyras of L'Anse, Mich. Dylan is also survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins, other relatives and friends.

The Maurina-Schilling Funeral Home of Abbotsford is assisting the family with arrangements.
