Owen was a tremendous source of strength, courage, laughter, and love to everyone that knew him. Owen was a 10th grade student at Brentsville High School; however he was home bound the past 2 years due to his battle with Osteosarcoma. In his free time he loved spending time with friends and family, dirt bike riding, paintballing, and playing the online game World of Warcraft.

Owen is survived by his parents, Brian Wicks, Deena Westenhofer, Scott Westenhofer and Celeste Zalewski, two brothers Zachary and Mason Westenhofer, maternal grandparents Chris and Joan Rash of Manassas, Virginia, paternal grandparents Bob and Charlotte Wicks of Fairfax, Virginia.

Memorial services will be held at 11 A.M. Saturday, April 14, 2012 at Pierce Funeral Home, 9609 Center Street, Manassas, Virginia.

A contribution to Owen’s family charity, WestRash Charities (http://www.westrashcharities.org) can be made in lieu of flowers.

God’s Garden

God looked around His garden

And found an empty place.

He then looked down upon the earth

And saw your tired face.

He put his arms around you

And lifted you to rest.

God’s garden must be beautiful

He always takes the best.

He saw the road was getting rough

And the hills were hard to climb,

So He closed your weary eyelids

And whispered “Peace be thine”.

It broke our hearts to lose you

But you didn’t go alone,

For part of us went with you

The day God called you home.

Happy New Year! I’ve been a little absent becaus Happy New Year! I’ve been a little absent because I started the year off with a cold that left me tired and unmotivated. But I’m feeling better and starting my goal tracking a little late. I thought it would be helpful to combine all our goal trackers into one file for easy downloading and printing. The link to the all-in-one file can be found in our profile @everydayroadtohealthy ☝🏼. Swipe to see January printed at 75% and taped inside my planner. I’m hoping this works better for me this year!
💚 Start where you are. 🤎
