The original straight beast will forever be missed. In fact Ryan was such a straight beast he once fought Superman on a bet. It was agreed that the loser would wear his underwear on the outside of there pants.
Your awesome.

Cousins are the ones that are always there for you no matter what happens!! We are cousins by God's blessing but friends by choice! A large piece of my heart broke when I got that call, I will always cherish the memories we have and the conversations of hope and happiness ? I love you; then, now and forever!

Kristyn,
Words cannot express the deep sorrow we feel for you, Mya and Kayden along with Ryan's parents. We did not know Ryan well, but at your wedding we felt the strong love and bond you had for each other. Ryan was a good man and we know that you, Kayden and Mya will miss him dearly.
We send our love to you,
Grandpa Russ and Grandma Karen

Been avoiding everything dog. And I realized that's not fair to your memory and selfish of me. My heart goes out to your entire family. Especially Kristyn, Mya, and Kayden. We lost one of the best when we loat you. So, ill remember you trying to force feed me the Miami Heat, wild goose chases in the woods, the only time I saw you get angry, disassembling fishing poles, MAYBE, grass fed beef steaks, the airplane car, and the tap out table in my courtyard. I love you brother.

Ryan, there are just no words to describe how heavy my heart is by your sudden passing. I know you love the Lord, so I know you are with him now. I also know how much you will be missed here on Earth by so many. You have a beautiful wife and son, who love you so very much, I pray your Spirit is able to send some comfort to Kristyn and your kids, family and friends who are missing you terribly right now. You have touched so many-many lives while you were here.
May you RIP Ryan. See you again one day.

I am sorry your time was short but am glad that you met the love of your life and had a beautiful son and stepdaughter. I am also thankful, honey, that you were saved before this happen so that you can now spend eternity with our Father and you will someday be reunited with all of your loved ones! I celebrate your life, Ryan Barnes, and the lives that you have touched and will touch! xoxo

"And ever has it been known, that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation". A tattoo I have on my back that I think fits this. You made Kristyn such a happy wife and mother, and I know you will forever inside her and the children.
