Alex Denise Kyrin was born on February 2, 2004 in Mason City, Iowa to mother, Jennifer (Nelson) Pommrehn.

They were active in the Army ROTC program and were beginning their first year as a mentor for the program. Alex was also a peer mentor for Viterbo’s TRIO program.
Alex was an amazing artist and loved drawing. They loved cactuses and took pride in their plants, loved hats and snow globes (having over 85 snowglobes), and Stitch (even painting a giant Stitch on their bedroom wall before leaving for college). Alex enjoyed reading, singing, watching musicals, listening to music, being in nature, and spending time fishing, biking, running, and kayaking. Alex was a survivor!
They had great plans for their future including getting married, living in the country, having animals, being stationed with the Army in Hawaii, traveling out of the country, and owning a Harley.
