Sorry for your uncomprehendable loss. And Mr. Mace, Ryannes' tattoo and yours have to be the best tattoo I've ever seen.
August 22, 2010
I extend to the Mace family my deepest condolences. Losing an only child is not easy, yet, by "draw[ing] close to God," you can see her again (James 4: 8; John 5: 28, 29).

I just watched the E! Broadcast of Ryanne's story - I am so sorry for her family's loss - she seemed like an extraordinary young woman. Her death was senseless and tragic - she will not be forgotton.

I just watched the family story on E! and I can't stop crying. This story touched me like no other. Maybe it's because I lost my brother just 6 days after Ryanne's passing. Or maybe it's because just like Eric I have a tattoo in honor of my brother. When I am missing him or thinking of him, I look down at my wrists and feel comforted. Ryanne was an amazing young lady and one I wish I could have called a friend. Eric and Mary Kay I offer you my most heartfelt sympathies and will always have a place for you in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for sharing Ryanne's life and story with the world.

I just saw the family interview on E! and this story really touched my heart. My deepest condolences to Ryanne's parents for their unspeakable loss. I had tears rolling down my face as I listened to Eric Mace relive this nightmare. May she rest in peace.

My wife and I lost our nineteen year old daughter in a car accident while she was traveling back to college January, 2008. We had thought about taking her back ourselves, but she was able to get a ride with a college friend. She had ridden with this friend before, so we felt relatively comfortable about his driving skills. We figured it made no sense for us to waste fifteen gallons of gas at the same time the friend was driving back by himself. It wasn't a monetary consideration. In fact, we were more than happy to pay the young man for his gas. It was an environmental consideration. We wanted to be good stewards of the earth, conserve fuel, reduce pollution, all that stuff.
The reason I'm bringing this up is this: it's easy to beat yourself up when things go wrong --- even when you tried to do the right thing. The advice you gave your daughter was the right advice. You have nothing to regret, just like we have nothing to regret. The only thing that matters is the kind of parents you are, and how much you loved your daughter when she was alive, and how clearly she knew it. That's all that matters.
As for waking up every morning thinking about her, going to bed at night thinking about her, spending most of the time in between thinking about her ... well, believe me, you're not alone.
We wish you the very best as you continue this long, painful journey.

I saw the family interview on CNN today. Your advice to sit in the front row is one that I learned in college and is one that I took advantage of in order to make an impression for the teachers and to better understand the subject. While I can't make you feel better about the advice you gave to Ryanne, I can say it is the same advice I gave to my daughter. You were and are excellent parents.
God bless you and Ryanne.

A gentle soul has left us, and I hope time will heal you. Ryanne sounds like a woman who could have, and did have an impact on everyone. I will introduce her to my 13 yr. old daughter so that she knows who is a good person, a caring soul. I do believe if you say a person's name, they will continue, so I will say her name now, Ryanne Mace.

God bless you!

To our and Ryanne's friends and loved ones:
Today should have been Ryanne's 20th birthday. A tree was planted in her memory today at NIU by her grandparents, aunt and uncle.
We, her parents, chose today to scatter her ashes in a place that we know she loved in Oregon. It is a place of great beauty and serenity and it will always remain unspoiled.
We thank you all for your comfort, support and for honoring the memory of a young woman who had a truly beautiful spirit: our beloved daughter, Ryanne.

I and my congregation at Washington Evangelical UMC have been in prayer for all of you these past two weeks as you have experienced this great loss. Knowing both of Ryanne's grandfathers and having read the news reports about her life, I can tell what a special person she was. I feel great pain at the loss you have experienced knowing what Ryanne's future plans were and her desire to help and serve others. May God give you strength and comfort in these difficult days as you know that Ryanne is at rest in the arms of her Savior Jesus Christ.

Extra Prayers for Ryanne's Family,
I can't imagine the heartache all of you are experiencing, having the vibrant joy of Ryanne's life cut so short! At times like this, I am especially grateful to know your family knows intimately the awesome Source of comfort and hope...for you and for Rayanne's eternal life now with our Savior. My prayer is that you will continue to lean not on your own understanding, but trust totally in God's loving comfort and grace to navigate through your grief now and the grief that will surface forever, because of the hole left in your hearts. May the joy and blessings that Ryanne brought into your lives continue to multiply in beautiful ways. Your sister in Christ,

My deepest sympathy to Ryanne Mace Family,
On reading all that is written about Ryanne somehow we readers get to know the person that she was, even though we never met her. Ryanne was an amazing young lady with a great future ahead of her. I hope and pray that your pain would ease as time goes by, it is hard I've been there, losing a newborn, I know how it feels to lose a child. You have great memories of your daughter, keep her spirit alive, you were fortunate to have such an Angel for a daughter. She's now with Jesus in a better place...

Mr, and Mrs.Mace,
First and formost I would like to say I am so sorry for your loss. Im holding you in my prayers. I would also like to say that I am so glad to have met Ryanne and been touched by her kindness. I was a freshmen who didnt know her way around a high school and she stopped (even though she was running late to class) to help me find my classroom. We were friends ever since. but it is just those little random acts of kindness that make someones days a little better,and even after I moved I cherish that fact that she didnt walk passed me and ignore me that day! So because of her I cherish ever moment and help anyone in need even if its something as little as finding a class. its still special!
She was a beautiful and sweet girl with everything going for her. I will miss her dearly.

To the Mace Family,
Ryanne and I had a psychology class together last semester and i had the pleasure of being in her research group. If i had to describe Ryanne in one word, it would be "happy". She was always laughing and smiling and she was such a joy to be around. She was so helpful and when i didn't understand something, she would always be there to explain it to me. The tragedy at Northern was horrible, but when i learned what had happened to Ryanne, it made it 100 times worse. I kept asking "Why her?!" I think that Ryanne would want us to remember her as a beautiful, funny and smart woman. And this is how i will always remember her. She was studying to be a psychologist, just like i am, and i know she would have made a wonderful psychologist. I can't believe she is gone. I feel blessed to have met her and i want you to know that the whole Mace family is in my thoughts and prayers.

However when those that are affected are known to you, are people you respect and hope you can refer to as friends, then the pain becomes a very personal one.
Please accept our sincere condolences on the tragic loss of your daughter Ryanne.
