“His passion for life, art, music, fashion and skateboarding has always been contagious.
“Dylan will be remembered by all as a loving son, brother and friend.
“In lieu of sending flowers, the family requests donations be made in Dylan’s memory to Dr. Stephen Forman.”
The skateboarding pro was well loved in the world of celebrity, with tributes pouring in, including from Ozzy Osbourne.
