Ryan M. Podolak

Pody, I am grateful for the years I got to spend with you, the things you taught me, and the laughs we had. I am indebted to you for your friendship forever. You have left many great legacies and memories in this world - I am looking forward to more awesome times with you in another place. Sending our sincerest condolences and aloha from Elsa, Josh, and I to Corinne, Mike, Chris, and the rest of Ryan's family.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Podolak,

I was saddened to hear of your heartbreak. I remember Ryan as a sweet, outgoing and kind boy- and in reading of him here, he clearly grew into an incredible man. I hope that you find some comfort in the company of family and friends during this sad time. You are in my family's thoughts and prayers.

I lived with Ryan my sophomore year at Pace University in NYC. What an awesome person he was. I was always envious of his ability to never let anything bother him. He was the coolest kid with a huge smile and a even bigger heart. We'll miss you Pody.

We can't begin to understand your tremendous loss. Our son, Kristopher, was Ryan's roommate at Pace and we share in your unbearable sorrow. Our prayers are with you all and will be with you always. Pat and Joe Kopycinski

Corinne, Mike and Chris

I am so sorry for your loss of Ryan. The best I can say is he is with loved ones who passed before him and he will never hurt again.. Please keep your happy memories and know that you will be with him again.
