Dylan A. Salas, 19, of Fort Collins, died Sunday night.
A 2016 graduate of Rocky Mountain High School, Dylan was born and raised in Fort Collins. In school and in life, he was an athlete, a leader, and a friend. Dylan was a two-year letterman in Golf at RMHS. He also enjoyed playing soccer for both RMHS and Arsenal as well as basketball with Rocky Mountain Fever.
Besides his athletic achievements, Dylan was also part of leadership programs, DECA (Distribute Education Clubs of America) and FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) in high school. He was in Boy Scout Troop 90 and loved going camping with his fellow scouts and dad. He loved people and being around others. Dylan genuinely liked and cared for everyone, with a big heart and without judgement.
Dylan was a student and proud fan of Baylor University. He planned to return to Waco in the fall. He loved to attend Bears sporting events and enjoyed the warm Texas weather.
Dylan loved to play golf especially enjoying sunsets at the course with his dad and papa Max. Those who knew Dylan can remember him each time they tee up, and every time they admire a beautiful sunset as if playing a round with Dylan.
Dylan is survived by his parents, Ron and Christina Salas; sister, Emma Salas; paternal grandparents, Max Salas, Maricela Vasquez, Pam Salas, and Vickie Salas; maternal grandparents, John and Shirley Rael; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
