Ryett Marlo Kotalik fell asleep and entered Heaven at the young age of 17 weeks gestation, weighing 7 ounces, and 7 inches in length. Though he was unable to live outside the womb, his life was cherished and loved by his parents Jason and Valerie Kotalik of Tyndall, South Dakota.
Ryett was and is a beloved son, little brother, grandson, and nephew. Comfort is found in the knowledge of the loving, gracious hands in which he now peacefully rests and that one day this little one will be rejoined with his earthly family when they go to where he has gone before them.
He is survived and forever loved by his parents; his big brother Anthony Kotalik; grandparents: Leslie Stillion of Tabor, Troy Fueri of Tabor, and Cathy (Glen) Bochman of Springfield; three great-grandparents; and aunts and uncles: Shandra Stillion of Vermillion, Elizabeth (Chad) Simek of Tyndall, Jeff (Andrianne) Kotalik of Yankton, Justin (Kelly) Kotalik of FL, Amanda (Josh) Horner of CO, and Katrina Bochman of Springfield.
A private family service was held on Thursday, July 27, 2017.
