Help remember Dylan, and support Chloe and her whānau through this difficult time.

Napier, Hawke's Bay

Gorgeous, happy, four-year-old Dylan was tragically killed in a car crash on Feb. 3.

Dylan was a vivacious, courageous little boy. An old soul who's big dreams of doing everything and going everywhere were cut short far, far too soon. Becoming a bmxing, dirtbiking, greenfingered engineer and more were in his future - travelling the world, making the world smile.

His mum, Chloe, and whānau are devastated by his death, and immensely grateful for the outpouring of kindness and support.

Donations will cover Dylan’s funeral costs and help pay for ongoing support for his family.

Catherine McQuillan's involvement (page creator)

Chloe has been a dear friend of mine for almost 20 years. She has supported me through my darkest times and this is the least I can do to remember my wee mate Dylan, back his amazing māmā, her whānau and wide, supportive group of friends.

Use of funds

All funds will go towards Dylan's funeral, and cover other costs for the whānau at this difficult time.

Ngā mihi nui ki a koe <3  6 February 2023

On behalf of Chloe and her whānau, I'd like to pass on a massive thank you and big aroha to all for the outpouring of support received. All of your thoughts, messages and gentle acts of kindness mean so much.

Dylan was not just any little boy - Chloe's close friend Hayley reiterated this so beautifully in her article this afternoon:
