It's been six years and it still sucks. Between the pineapples, Psych, and the 100 misadventures, you will never be forgotten. Your memory is a blessing, and it was an honor to know you.
I'll never forget you buddy.

Mrs. Sellars and Family,
I cannot tell you how shocked and sad I was to find out that Ryan had passed away. You are in my prayers and I will always remember the close relationship I had with Ryan as his teacher at LCTI. He was one of the most sincere, intelligent, and perceptive students I have had in my classes, and I am so sorry for what has happened. You have my deepest sympathy and heartfelt prayers for your pain at this difficult time. I am thankful for the happy times we had together in class and I believe he knew he was accepted for who he was,
Sincerely,
Matthew Welsh
