Eileen and family:
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your son and brother, Tom. I wanted to come to St. Peter last week, but wasn't able to make it. He sounds like such a wonderful person. I will keep you in my prayers, and hope to stop in to see you sometime Eileen.
Your cousin,
Rosemary McKay

I'm at a loss for what to say, I was in Reserves and worked at the hospital with Tom. I havnt spoken or seen him in a very long time. When I saw this is brought back memories. Sorry for your lost Ryan family, keeping his wife and children in my prayers, he is still watching over you all from heaven.

I'm so sorry to hear this news, the couple times I was in the hardware store he was always right there to help!
As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends and know he is finally at peace.
(I'm a huge advocate for mental health especially depression and anxiety because I too struggle and know how hard and lonely it can feel at times) I wish it was talked about more before we lose anymore amazing people from our community to it. I'm so very sorry for what you are going through, it's just not fair! Hugs and strength to you all!!

I am so shaken by the death of Tom. He was a staple at the Hardware store. I would see his truck parked out front every day on my way to work. I'm devistated for his wife and young daughter. His death will be felt by many throughout the community. My prayers are with all of you. May God give you strength, peace and wisdom in the days ahead.
