Charles E. "Junior" Ryan

To my son, today marks 21 years you.have been gone. It is like it was yesterday. I miss you so.much, but this year is different because I know your Dad is with you. I am having a real hard time losing both of you, but am loving that he is there with you now. It has not been the same since you left us, but for him, it was like losing his right arm, you two were so close. And now I have lost the person I was so ungodly close too (your dad). I love you both beyond words and I have a loneliness...

Chuckie, I am sorry this is late, your 60 th. Birthday was a week ago yestersay, but on Saturday we (your whole family, except Tim and Vonnie because Tim was sick) all toasted you and had a Bud Light celebrating your 60th birtbday. I hope you were looking down on us, because we love and miss you so much. It was great to share with the family your 60th. God knows how much we miss you, so much sometimes it hurts. We will always have you in our hearts until we can hold you in Heaven. All our...

Chuckie, well another Christmas without you it's just never gong to be the same with out you. We always laugh and talk about the Christmases we did share when you were with us. So many great times we had. Your nieces and nephew have families now and are learning about "Uncle Chuck" and what a great racer, uncle, son, and friend. And how.you were loved by so many. God I miss you, we all do, but you are alive in so many ways. Merry Christmas son, I hope you are able to be with Grandma Taylor...

To our son, I am so sorry I am late getting this in here. It has been 17 years ago now since you left us and believe me it does not get easier. You were our idol, our leader of our Leslie Gang in your racing world. And it us not at all what it was when you were here. I know God must have needed you more than he thought we needed you, but I am doubting that because I miss you more than words can say. Your family misses you too, but I think your "son" Chad misses you about as much as we do. He...

Chuckie, I am so sorry I did not know that I could get this guest book on here and that it could be on here permanetely until Aunt Karen told me to see. Today is Mother`s day, and it only brings back when I was first made a mother and that`s when I had you. Who would have known that I would only have you for a short 40 years. You made us so proud in so many ways right up until the day that you left us. They tell me that God only takes the good, well he got the best one when he took you. ...

To the WHOLE Ryan family, We are so sorry for your pain. You are all in our prayers. The racing memories will always be with us.

Dear Toni and Family,
We're so sorry to hear about your loss, who would have thought this could happen to someone so young. You all didn't need another to add to the list, especially Chuck.
Take good care of yourselves, I know the days ahead will be difficult, we'll be praying for you.
Love,
Linda, Pat, and family
