Ethan was well loved not only his family, but by his students and co-workers as well. An example of this is from a parent of one of Ethan's students.

"I’ll never forget how excited (the child's name) was that Mr.Dutton received the telescope ?? that he had on his wish list for his Astronomy class. She said she wasn’t sure if the school would purchase it or not because it was pricy. When it came in, Mr.Dutton was soooo excited. ((She stills tells me how much it cost, she was so happy for him ??)⁴)"



" This morning we sat in the parking lot of the Allan Fuller Funeral Home streaming Mr.Duttons service live because [student's names] asked if I would take them to his service so they could pay their respects to their teacher. I didn’t hesitate to say yes. It made my heart warm that they wanted to go to say one last goodbye.

This was the first year they had Mr.Dutton as a teacher but he definitely made an impact on his students. He was always known as the cool teacher, actually him & his wife were known as the cool, fun teachers. He ignited the imagination of so many kids. He was [child's name] Astronomy teacher ??, & she always looked forward to going to the school on Friday nights to stargaze & learn about the night sky with her Mr.Dutton & her classmates. She enjoyed so much she even asked for a telescope ?? of her own for Christmas. [Child's name] also has his wife Mrs.Dutton for math, so she had the best of both Duttons.??He was also [child's name] Science teacher & she always enjoyed his class, he’s ways of teaching, she said he always made class fun & always came to school with a positive attitude. ??

He left a life long impact on so many kids.
Mr.Dutton will be missed by many kiddos but never forgotten. 29 years young, gone to soon."⁵
