In loving memory of Ryan Dupain

It is said with a very heavy heart that Ryan Dupain, a son, brother, friend, teammate and groom-to-be has left this earth too soon. He impacted every soul he met with such postivity. Anyone that he met, he could get a huge smile from because that is exactly who Ryan was. He was the happy-go-lucky kind of guy. The one who could always turn a bad day around with his contagious up-beat personality. Ryan was a near and dear friend of mine from Capital University. After establishing an extremely quality friendship with him, I met his fiance, Rachel Neil who has become one of my best friends. They had so many hopes and dreams for such a bright future.  With plans to get married in October of this year and move to Nashville soon after, she is very heartbroken and devastated. The feeling she is experiencing is unfathomable, but it's time we be strong for her and Ryan's family and help them all through this extremely difficult time. After losing her soon-to-be mother-in-law a couple weeks ago, I can't even begin to imagine what life is like right now for Rachel and Ryan's families. I am asking for donations to help her and Ryan's family for the funeral and memorial services. I will be collecting the donations and delivering them to Rachel and the Dupain family when I feel as if we collected as much as we can to help his loved ones. As Ryan would say, "Let's go Cap!" Let's do this for him, his family and his fiance. Thank you so much, you are very much appreciated.
