Ian Nicholas Rose, 26, passed away after an accidental fall on September 28, 2022, at his apartment in Eugene, Oregon.
Ian was born in Tucson, Arizona on July 1, 1996. He had spent the last 21 years in Michigan, which included elementary school at Brookview Montessori School, St. Joseph High School and many happy summers as a camper and counselor at Camp Eberhart. He had recently moved to Oregon to pursue his love of the outdoors and for a new adventure.
Ian is survived by his parents, Michel Marie Rose and Lauren Strach, his siblings, Brianna Quijada, Elizabeth (Matt) Stolz, and Anna Strach, nieces Ivy and Adelaide, nephew Jack, and many other friends and family.
Ian’s Celebration of Life will be at the Jean Klock Park pavilion in Benton Harbor on Saturday, October 15, from 2-4 pm. In keeping with who Ian was, this event will be outdoors, near the beach, with extremely casual attire.
A memorial fund in Ian’s name has been established at Brookview Montessori School. All monies collected will be used to purchase outdoor play equipment or a bench in his memory.
