Ryan was the sweetest most down to earth person anyone could ever meet. He is so happy in every picture. Watching him become the fine young man that he waswas the best. From being Brenda's shadow to marrying such a beautiful bride Stephanie and becoming such an amazing father like his parents Jay & his mom Kandee. I only wish I could attend and be there for everyone as they have always been there for me and my family. We are so sorry. Ryan will be forever in our hearts and we pray for strength to Stephanie, Max, Mav, and Nova along with Jay and Kandee, Brenda, and Shelby. We also pray for Greg and Myra, Brian and Lesa who all helped me get thru the passing of my dad. Unbearable heart break. Time has helped with my dad and I hope time will heal everyone. We all know our lives are forever changed but it is so important to remember to cherish the littlest happiness' that life has to offer. I remember going to Max's first birthday and how proud Ryan was as I talked to him in the back yard of his new house. Ryan loved the yard and how it had a nature preserve so he could always have fun playing with his children. I told him that his house was awesome and that I was proud of him. He was beaming with joy. He loved his family so much and we will all miss his kindness. He is looking down on us with my dad. My dad was extremely fond of Ryan and his dedication. Even though Ryan's life was too short: he sure lived a beautiful life❤. Until we all meet again. With love, Lisa Carolyn Marilyn Mila Keith
