May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Ryan, we love you, kiss our Tadd for us!!

Ryan was an unbelievable person. Witty, smart, funny and a hell of a pitcher. Angels scored a home run with this addition to the roster.
Forever missed.
Sorry sorry for your loss Carol.

Your ladies love you bunches.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Ryan thanks for being a great friend.
The holidays are so difficult without you. Everyday is difficult without you….. my love will never ever waver. You are the sunshine of my life as well as McKenna’s. Saying we miss you is an understatement because the hole you left in our lives will never heal. Only God knows how much we love you, Baby. With each passing month it only hurts worse in your absence. There’s so much I wish I could tell you and I’d give my life to see you even if it was only for a minute. I wish you could see how your beautiful baby girl is growing into a simply stunning young lady. There is SO much of you in her. We need you back. The world went dim when you left…. My heart is forever yours, Dougie.
