Hi Ryan. I use to follow your moms blog and loved seeing her post about you. I was pregnant with my 1st baby when I first came across your moms page. I use to say to myself , “ I hope My baby is just as cool as Ryan!” And you know what ? My middle baby reminds me a lot of you. She just turned 4 , September 1st. She loves ninja turtles like you do, her favorite movie is sonic because he runs fast. I remember you loving dash because he’s just as fast too. She loves wearing neat shirts and hats like you too, and she’s into skate boarding. I know you too never met before in person but it feels like before I met her..she had the privilege to meet you. I say this because I came across your dads Instagram and he had a photo of you up and my daughter points to the photo and says “ hey , mom that’s my friend! “ and she smiled. So, thank you Ryan. Thank you for being my daughters friend. You’re such a rad little dude. We all miss you Ryan , keep showing us signs that you are with us. I hope your having just as much fun in heaven as you did when you were here. Bye, Ryan.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I watched you yesterday on Ellen show. Your story has hit me hard. i don't know you but I am grieving for you two! You see I have Three beautiful girls and dreamed of having a boy with Long curly red hair and then I saw Ryan and heard your story. I can't imagine what you have went through with the tragedy but just having the little guy around for the short time would have been very special, I will always think of you and keep up with your blog. I will think of you and Ryan when I see red balloons! My condolences to you guys forever. Please have a merry Christmas and celebrate Ryan.

And while we may never understand God's plan, Ryan was placed on Earth for a reason - those three and a half years made a difference in the lives of those he touched. Although indeed it may feel like he is gone from this Earth too soon, may your pain and sorrow be healed with the memories of him that you hold in your heart forever. This is heartbreaking, and as a mother of a 3 year old son named Ryan, I feel your pain; I pray for you & your family. Ryan lives on....always and forever.
