The Tiffin, Ohio community is mourning a tragedy of unimaginable depth—a heartbreaking loss that has shaken family members, friends, neighbors, and all who have learned of the devastating events that unfolded. Our deepest and most sincere condolences go out to everyone affected by the deaths of 7-year-old Wrenn, 7-month-old August, and 29-year-old Dustin Willey, whose lives were tragically taken in a murder-suicide involving their father and stepfather, Ryan Eagan. No words can fully capture the sorrow felt in the wake of this event, nor can they express the enormity of grief now carried by the loved ones left behind.
In moments like these, families and communities struggle to understand what cannot be understood. What remains clear, however, is the profound love that surrounded these young children and the man who was senselessly taken from those who cherished him. Wrenn, remembered as bright, lively, compassionate, and full of promise, brought laughter and warmth wherever he went. Baby August, only seven months old, was a source of joy and light—an infant whose gentle presence filled his family with hope for the future. Dustin Willey, a devoted father, son, and friend, is remembered for his kindness, his hardworking spirit, and his unwavering love for his children.
Their loss leaves a void that can never be filled, and those grieving now face a journey no parent, relative, or loved one should ever have to walk. The mother of Wrenn and August, who endured unimaginable trauma, remains in the thoughts and prayers of countless people. Her strength in the face of such overwhelming sorrow is something no one should ever have been asked to summon.
During this dark and painful time, the community stands united in compassion—lifting up these families with love, support, and heartfelt sympathy. May the memories of Wrenn, August, and Dustin bring some measure of comfort in the days ahead, and may those who are suffering find the strength and healing needed to move forward.
To the families grieving these irreplaceable lives, please know you are not alone. The community holds you close, honoring the lives lost and mourning with you in profound sorrow and solidarity.
