Ryley Matthew Trepagnier, 31, of San Antonio, Texas, was pronounced deceased on October 8, 2025. Ryley was born on June 7, 1994, in Landstuhl, Germany. He leaves behind a loving family — his mother, Lin Trepagnier; father, Kenneth Trepagnier (wife Cheryl Trepagnier); brothers, Zachary Trepagnier (wife Veronica Trepagnier) and Brody Trepagnier — as well as a niece, Delphine Trepagnier; and nephew, Ezekiel Trepagnier who adored their Uncle Ryley.

Ryley lived a passionate and purpose-driven life. He approached every challenge with determination, courage, and humor. Those closest to him remember his boundless curiosity and ability to find light even in life’s darkest moments. Honest to a fault and open-hearted, Ryley was unwavering in his dedication to doing what he believed was right, giving his all in every endeavor.

A lifelong learner, Ryley earned an associate’s degree in Liberal Arts and Sciences and multiple networking certifications. His love of knowledge extended far beyond the classroom: he deeply explored philosophy and world religions, always seeking understanding and connection. A skilled martial artist, he attained black belts in both Krav Maga and Ketsugo Ryu Jujitsu, disciplines that reflected his commitment to discipline, growth, and self-mastery. 

In his spare time, Ryley found joy in simple passions — reading, gaming, exploring anime and manga, and working on his beloved car, affectionately named “Chariot.” Friends and family will remember him as a devoted son, caring brother, loyal friend, and a man whose spirit burned brightly with curiosity and compassion.

Ryley’s family invites all who knew him to honor his life by embracing kindness, passion, and truth — just as he did every day. As Ryley often believed and lived by: "To lead is to serve; everything is within."
