Ryan was my youngest son. He had the biggest heart and a smile that could melt the coldest of hearts. My son Christopher, at Ryan's funeral service while reading his euology, referred to his as "The Shepherd",people in need gravitated toward Ryan and he always had open arms for them. He was the guy to go to if you needed a couch to sleep on, a ride somewhere, an ear to listen to you, or a shoulder to cry on. He was a son, a brother, a father and a friend. He had many nicknames and they all meant something special to whoever was callling him: Willow, Irisher, Toast, or just Ry. He leaves behind two sons, Corey and Coty, and a daughter Morgan. It is a sad day for all of his family and a great loss. A parent should never have to bury a child, it is the greatest pain one can bear. Ryan, I shall miss you my son, you were my heart. I just hope you can be at peace now and that God will hold you in the palm of his hand. Love, Mom

| Ryan, I just found out. I don't know what to say. I can't believe that I'm even typing this, because "good-bye" is one phrase that I never ever wanted to tell you. I am so sorry that we lost touch last summer. I know you were trying so hard to make a new start. You became a good friend after we really began to hang out. And you became my best guy friend after everything happened with "Idiot." I was so sad, because he lied, cheated and treated me like a piece of trash. I called so many nights with the same saddness in my heart, and sometimes I was afraid that you would get sick of taking my calls, or sick of trying to cheer me up about the same thing. But you never did. You just said, "Kare, why don't you come over and sleep on the couch?!" Then I would come over and we would talk for hours about everything from relationships to Montana. It was just like your mom said. You were the guy that a friend could really count on. And there aren't too many people like that in this world. You always had a place in your heart, and a spot on your couch. Your smile and laughter gave me hope. And your words of encouragement pulled me through one of the toughest times of my life. I remember you telling me that you wanted me to be strong and to forget about him, because I deserved better. You told me that you couldn't wait for the day that I told you, "The hell with him, that I no longer cared, and that I had found someone who really treated me well." So, here it is. "Ryan, I found someone a lot better. He is so good to me, sometimes I think too good. He treats me with kindness and respect, and doesn't make up fake stories about "Polish Bob." (It makes me laugh just a little to think about us laughing about "Polish Bob." I can just see you shaking your head and laughing with me like we did so many nights.) Anyway, you would really like my new boyfriend, and I only wish that I could tell you all of this to your face. But since I can't. I'll just say that I will never forget you. You were one of the truest and best friends I have ever had, and I will always love you. And I will miss you more than you could ever know.
Your Friend Always,
-Kare
