Evan Deboer Obituary, Death – In honor of Evan DeBoer, who passed away unexpectedly while enrolled in the first level of the Metal Fabrication Apprenticeship program, the college flags have been lowered to the half-staff position. As a way to show respect for his memory and the fact that he was only 19 years old when he died on December 4 as the result of an accident, the college lowered all of the flags on campus. Once he has passed away, his parents, Frank and Sandra, together with his siblings, Joshua and Cailyn, will grieve his passing and express their condolences to one another. You are welcome to view the obituary that was written about Evan and posted on the internet here.
