Ryan Phillip Kleeman, 23, of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina passed away Tuesday, August 30, 2016. His Funeral Service will be held Saturday, September 3, 2016 in the J. Henry Stuhr, Inc. Mount Pleasant Chapel, 1494 Mathis Ferry Road at 11:00 a.m. Burial will be private. The family will receive friends Saturday one hour prior to the service in the Mount Pleasant Chapel. Ryan was born October 22, 1992, son of the late Sidney D. Kleeman, Jr. and Kristin Marie Schnauthiel Kleeman. He was raised on a thoroughbred farm in Lexington, KY. The farm is where Ryan fell in love with horses, hunting with dad, fishing and lacrosse. Ryan's love for his Kentucky home was so great that his new friends referred to him as "Kentucky". The passion of Ryan's life was University of Kentucky Wildcats basketball - his heart truly bled blue for his team. Ryan graduated from Bishop England and was currently enrolled in college. It was his wish to graduate from the College of Charleston. Ryan is survived by his mother, Kristin of Mt. Pleasant, SC; brother, Jennings Kleeman of Mt. Pleasant, SC; two uncles, Tom Schnauthiel of Huger, SC and Daniel Schnauthiel of Mt. Pleasant, SC; and aunt, Carolyn Schnauthiel Wells of Greenwood, SC. Memorials may be made to the Charleston Recovery Center (Ashley Hope), 5060 Dorchester Road, Suite 210, North Charleston, SC 29418 or online at charlestonrecoverycenter.com.

Dearest Kristen and Jennings,

There are no words when a Mother losses a child and I'm very sad Jennings has lost his brother. I recall the days back on the farm, they were so very special and I miss those visits. May God bless you both and comfort you with love.

Hugs,
Juanita

Kristen, my heart is saddened to learn of Ryan's passing. How well I remember his happiness when you brought the family's pet dog to our third grade classroom, and you both had the opportunity to educate his classmates and his "Gross" teacher about this particular species. I extend, especially to you, as well as other members of your family, my heartfelt sympathy. May time heal your hurt and bring you strength, comfort, and peace.
