Ry,
I still miss you and think about you everyday. I miss your big hugs and your contagious laughter. You were the best baby brother I could've ever asked for. My heart still aches knowing you missed out on so much. I miss Gracie and Miranda greatly and will tell them everything you said when I see them. I still have your back. I still haven't met your son, but I plan to someday. Everyday I see something that reminds me of you. I still love you with all my heart and soul and always will.
Love,
Your favorite big sister,
Tina

Thinking about you a great deal lately, and today an email popped up saying someone added something to your Legacy Book on line. Was a message from God I guess telling me to look at your pictures again. Miss you my young friend...you were such a very special young man to our family

I might not have known you, or have had any connection with you but I'm your daughters best friend. I hope that you hear her prayers to you.

To Ryin's wife, parents, and children,
I have a lot of fond memories of Ryin from school, especially those crazy Saturday morning CYO basketball games. Ryin was always so much fun and such a great person to be around. My family and I are saddened by this news, and wish your family the best through this tough time.

Dear Jane and Dan -
Through the clear silence of a beautiful dawn,
Leaving no footprints on the road it trod,
Straight as an arrow reaching its mark,
The soul went home to God.
I love this poem and the message it conveys. My heart cries for your loss. I am so very sorry. Having lost two children, I know of your pain. May our Heavenly Father grant you peace and comfort until you are reunited for eternity.

With Love and Understanding,

Dear Ryin:
I will remember you for the love & enthusiasm that you brought to this life.
I will remember you at Melodie’s wedding, laughing & spinning Bonnie on the dance floor wearing your cowboy hat. At Christmas, sitting in your PJ’s on Dolores’ couch, talking endlessly about cars with Steve. You as a Daddy to Gracie and Miranda making them giggle with joy.
You were honest & kind & will be missed.

Ryin... all of us from OUR math classes became a large family. We are missing a piece from our "pie".
Such a kind buddy, kind of guy that you could rely on. Kind of guy you loose track of time talking to.
This guy could talk cars. It was fun to BS with Ryin in Bonnie's kitchen. Having a Budweiser. He was a such a good guy.
So sad for all of Us.

Our prayers and condolences go out to Ryin's family and all of those who grew to love him as the decent human being he always was. We wish that we could be there to help celebrate his life, but it just cannot be.
As a teen Ryin used to come to our house with Steph, and he fit right in. All of the kids and he had that same sarcastic sense of humor, and they loved teasing me persistently. Ryin was such a good friend to Steph. Her dad and I will never forget how he stood by her as a friend and confidant. He was a light that shined brightly, whose glow went out too soon. I will always hold you in my heart as one of my sons.
Hey buddy, you still owe us a sliding door for our van!

My most sincere and heartfelt condolences to Ryin’s family and friends.
Ry, thinking about all the times we went to dinner, grabbed a drink, watched you eat baken-ets and drink white chocolate mochas at 7 in the morning, had faith in me to lead our team, took me to breakfast and let me cry my heart out, talked about our passions in life and so much more. I looked forward to having my motorcycle mentor this summer... but I know you’ll always be there to look out for me, no matter what I’m doing. I’ll never forget the advice you have given me over the years, especially in the last few weeks. Rest in peace Porkchop. I love you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
