Ryan Shelor Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Ryan Michael SHELOR October 2, 1984 August 10, 2006
www.ryanshelorfund.org
Happy 24th birthday! We wish we could give you that big birthday hug and celebrate together. We know you're having the best time ever with Granddaddy, Pop, Robbie, John, Big Rick and all of your special family there with you. You are our rock and our hero. Our hearts still ache for your earthly presence, but we know you are now free from aches and pain. Your life on earth was amazing and inspirational to all; you taught us so much about life and unconditional love. We know your spirit will be with us at your Ryan Shelor Fund's First Annual fund-raising Luau this weekend. The Fund is continuing your legacy of helping other children with special needs. We bet you'll be dancing with Katie and Leslie, having a blast! We feel so honored to have been blessed with you as our son and brother. We love and miss you but celebrate your new life in heaven.
