Ryan Taylor Obituary
January 17, 1985 - November 4, 2025
Ryan M. Taylor, 40, of Fredericksburg, Va., passed away peacefully on November 4, 2025, after succumbing to the long-term effects of a medical emergency he suffered in 2014.
Born on January 17, 1985, in Fredericksburg, Va., Ryan was a graduate of Massaponax High School. He went on to earn his degree in Business Information Technology from Virginia Tech in 2007. Go Hokies!!
Ryan found great fulfillment in his career, working for a Google partner company, where he thrived until his health challenges required him to enter long-term care.
Ryan is survived by his loving mother, Mary; father, Roger; brother, Jason; sister-in-law, Emily; nephew, Cole; niece, Cora; and half-brother, Michael.
He will be remembered for his passion, resilience, and the joy he brought to those around him. Arrangements are private, and the family appreciates the thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Ryan's Memory may be made to Make A Wish Foundation, 1702 E. Highland Ave., Suite 400, Phoenix, AZ 85016.

My deepest sympathies on the death of your son, Ryan. My baby boy Kevin, at 3 1/2 years old died in
1998. My heart breaks for you and I know the ups and downs you are feeling and will be
feeling. There are no words to comfort us in the loss of a child. I am also The Compassionate
Friends Fredericksburg Chapter Leader which is a self-help support group for all bereaved
parents, siblings and grandparents who have lost a child. When you are ready, please email me
and I will get you some resources. I am here for you if you need me. Praying for you all

I´m so sorry for your loss. Ryan, Perry and my son Matthew were friends from Spotswood ES to Massaponix HS. They rode their bikes all over the neighborhood getting into mischief daily I´m sure! Ryan was a kind and sweet boy and grew into a kind and gentle young man. Hugs and prayers to the family. May he now rest in peace.
