Not sure what to say?

Always appreciated you taking care of my dad's house when he went on vacation. You and your family are in our hearts.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time. May the perpetual light shine upon Ryan. Rest in peace.
Love, Millie & Joseph Lucero

You will be greatly missed.

You were one of the kindest, sweetest souls I've ever met. I was truly lucky to call you my friend. I can't believe you're gone, but until we meet again, I love you dearly and you are missed beyond measure.

Our deepest condolences and our prayers for you and your family

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
Love your friend forever,
Tita and Her Children ♥

I met Ryan many years ago when he was still like 16/17ish he joined a chat room I was always in we became friends we joked around and stayed friends since he will be missed by many in sure

Ryan I met you when you were just a kid and you were full of life not knowing yet what life was all about , but I never got to see how you became the man that lot of people got to see and loved, you were physically big but the heart that you possessed was a lot bigger, you’ll be missed always, you brought a smile to my face when you called me old man whenever I called your mom to talk to . RIP
