Not sure what to say?

This is so sad. I remember Ryan when he was a young child and growing into the fine young man he became. The whole family are wonderful people. I send my deepest condolences to all of Ryan's family and friends.

Ryan was so kind to my whole family every time we walk through the door at the Y. He will be missed. May his contagious smile live on

My Husband and I met Ryan when we joined the YMCA a couple of years ago. We had missed a few months due to a temporary illness and were so deeply saddened to learn of his passing yesterday! Ryan was one of a kind and lit up the room when we would come in the Y. He always had a smile on his face and was so helpful when we inquired about different programs and he was quick to crack a joke and he treated you like family. We are better people for knowing Ryan and will miss him dearly. You will...

Words cannot express how saddened I was when I learned about Ryan. Whenever I saw Ryan at the Y, he was always so pleasant! He was such a special person. My deepest condolences to the entire Windyka family. Sincerely, Kathy Bishop

As a new member of the Y, Ryan shouted out an "hello" to me, by name, having met me just once a week prior. I felt so special and welcomed, he was and is in my heart, a gift. Heartfelt condolences to the many who love him.

I started at the YMCA at the same time as Ryan and could tell he was special then ...and would one day run the whole thing! His passion showed through! Such happiness (especially when discussing the Lakers) - a special light in this world that made his mark on me during our short time together, a long time ago. My condolences to his beloved family and friends.

I´am Deeply Sorry For Your Loss

My sincere condolences to the Windyka family in this difficult time ...

ryan was a wonderful friend---joyfully combative and kind ready to exchange witticisms while always making sure that his gentle sarcasm never crossed the breach---loved our weekly exchange-- paul
