Dear members of Ryan's family, friends, and others that his life has touched,
I was deeply saddened to hear of this tragic loss. I had spoken with him on several occasions, initially through my work association with his mom, Pat. I learned that he and I attended the same school in different programs. We shared stories about the rigors of our education, and how he triumphantly graduated, became licensed, and found work in his new profession. Many late nights, he would pick his mom up after her shift was over. From the very first meeting, he impressed me with his poise, respect and compassion. Many blessings to those who grieve his loss.

I had the privilege of working with Ryan at Webster Elementary. Ryan was employed as our Facilities Asst. He had an easy going personality, I can't think of anyone who didn't like Ryan. He touched the hearts and lives of everyone who had the opportunity to meet him. I will miss him and my heart is broken at the thought of his passing.
