Douglas Ryan Pollok

17 years now since you've been gone. And even with so much time to heal, to this day I scold myself when the memory of you is my second or third daily thought, rather than the first. And those times when I get through most of the daylight hours before thinking of you, I get down on myself because of I feel somehow I'm letting you down. The worst feeling is thinking about all the conversations we had so many years ago about how we would be as 40-year old men ...well almost 40 y/o man for me :)...

It's been 5,110 days since we last talked...I called and woke you up to see if you were coming over to play cards but you already made plans to go out for Anthony's birthday party. I was disappointed and called you at least one choice name, but I definitley told you I love you. Miss you everyday man, everyday.

Our hearts go out to your family. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We were one of his weekly stops. He will be greatly missed.

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

Ryan was a true, close, and great friend. I Miss him dearly. He has touched my heart very deep and I will always remember him. He had the personality that could light up the room. Doug, Mary, Brenda, Rodney, steve and Geny, I am always here for you guys. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers! We will sincerly miss Ryan's regular visits. His smile lit up the room. His vibrent personality would linger in the dealership, even after he had left. He truly was an amazing person!!
