Obituary of Easton Jon Galpin

Easton Jon Galpin, infant son of Jared and Gina Galpin of North Liberty, IA passed peacefully in the arms of his parents on October 17, 2019 at the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics in Iowa City, IA.

Easton was born on October 13, 2019.  Easton was a perfect angel in the eyes of all who met, held, and looked forward to loving him.  Easton was born with his mom’s blonde hair and blue eyes, his dad’s dimple chin, and the most perfect chubby cheeks, fingers, and toes.

Despite his brief time on earth, Easton touched many lives and left permanent footprints on the hearts of his parents, big brother Mason, and extended family. Easton will be forever remembered and loved.

Easton was welcomed into heaven by his Grandma Bonnie Greiner, infant cousin Kolton Kingsbury, and great grandparents Joe and LaVerne Bonewitz, Harry and Margaret Galpin, Alva and Isabelle Baker, and Leonard and Mary Greiner.  He is survived by his parents Jared and Gina Galpin, his 2 year old big brother Mason, his grandparents Keith and Connie Galpin (Ackley, IA) and Marlin Greiner (Keota, IA) as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

A public visitation will be held on Thursday October 24, 2019 from 4-7pm with a prayer service at 7pm at the St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Coralville, IA.  A funeral service officiated by Rev. Charles Adam on Friday, October 25th at 10:00 AM will also be held at St. Thomas More Catholic Church.  Private burial will take place following the funeral in Keota, IA.    To share a thought or condolence with Easton’s family please visit the funeral home website @ www.gayandciha.com. In lieu of flowers a memorial fund has been established in Easton’s memory (Easton Galpin Memorial Fund).  Gay & Ciha Funeral and Cremation Service is caring for Easton’s family and his services.

The family would like to express a heartfelt thank you to the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics Obstetrics and NICU departments for the compassionate care provided to Easton, his parents, and the entire family during this time of joy and sorrow.
