Ryan Hester Memorial Fund

Donation protected
On Thursday, May 29th Ryan was involved in a tragic cliff jumping accident that took his life.  He leaves behind his wife, Kelly, and one-year old daughter, Leighann.  Ryan, only 30 years young, had an amazing zest for life and a magical way of putting a smile on anyone's face.

Ryan's young family is devestated by his loss.  They do not have life insurance and Kelly's modest teaching salary make it a challenge to pay for final expenses.  Any donation will help out in a big way.  Any donations exceeding funeral expenses will be put into a fund for Leighann.

We ask that you please keep Kelly and Leighann in your prayers during this extremely difficult time.  If you are able to make a contribution you may do so here.  His family is forever grateful for the love and support you have shown.

*For those who prefer not to donate online, there has been a fund established at Fifth Third Bank called the "Leighann Hester Fund".*
