I never knew this young man, but was "Big Tom" to the Rehill Family! My heart stopped when I got news! Tommy, I cant begin to fathom your loss, so I wont! I love you man! Consider yourself hugged! May God be with your son and your whole family. RIP Ryan!

Only just met Ryan this summer through his brother officer Matt Rehill who we met on the beach protecting our sandcastle. Ryan seemed like such a happy, energetic, what a guy! Our condolences. Jen and son Blaise Hainley, Liz and sons Jack and Luke Whitehe

We were not able to attend due to our family covid restrictions. However, thankfully we attended Ryan's funeral Mass virtually and his burial at holy Cross thanks to the transmission on Facebook. We could not be with you and your family physically but we share in your grief. God bless Ryan and all of the Rehill family.

Dear Ryan,
" We don't know why you had to go, but we know that you will miss you so.
With your happy smile, and sense of fun, we can't take it in that you are gone.
You brought joy to every life you touched and you are missed, so very much.
But beautiful soul lives forever and memories of you we will always treasure.
Now your spirit is free to be with God for eternity."
