Ryan Brett Orndorff

Ryan was truly committed to environmental conservation and stewardship. He worked hard to spread the word and to engage others from many other walks of life.

He was a good person and taken away from this world before his time

I was honored to work with Ryan off and on for many years on conservation and mitigation issues (I work for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service). We interacted on a few projects and some training. He was a visionary and through his efforts, set the path many local and national programs to flourish. His legacy will certainly live on in the policies and programs he touched. I was so saddened to hear of his passing. My deepest condolences to his family.

To Ryan's entire family and friends - I am sorry for your/our loss. His dedication to his work and conserving nature won't be forgotten. I am thinking of everyone that got to meet and cross with Ryan today. My condolences.

Ryan, Rachel, Nellie, and Charlie,

I had the privilege of meeting Rachel, Nellie, and Charlie at your home, with your wonderful dad. It was a short visit, but in that time it was clear yours was a special family, living a loving life. The loss of Ryan is too hard to sugar coat to you. May your sorrow ease over time as remember your love and life together, the joys you shared, the values you held, and the time, though to short, that you were blessed to be together. Though Ryan has passed, his spirit will be with you forever.
