In Loving Memory of Ryan – Supporting Rikki, Nash, & Lenna

We are friends of Amy, the beloved wife of Ryan, whose life was tragically cut short at the age of 41, leaving behind his heartbroken family.

Ryan and Amy’s love story began at a young age, and for over 20 years they built a beautiful life together. They were blessed with three wonderful children: Rikki (10), Nash (7), and Lenna (4).

In June 2024, Ryan began his courageous fight against cancer. Despite his strength and determination, he passed away just 14 months later, on Saturday, August 16, 2025.

Ryan was a devoted husband, father, and community member. He poured his heart into supporting his children—whether driving Rikki to rep soccer, cheering for Nash in hockey or lacrosse, or coaching and mentoring young hockey players. He was deeply proud of his family and community, and was always their biggest champion.

Before his diagnosis, Ryan worked tirelessly running his own plumbing business. He was a provider in every sense, often balancing long workdays with hours at the rink. His dedication allowed Amy to be home with their children until they entered school full time.

The Family’s Need

Now, this devastating loss has left Amy and the children not only grieving, but also facing immense financial challenges. Amy must find a way to rebuild her life while supporting her children’s day-to-day needs and their futures—all while navigating the heartbreaking reality of raising them without Ryan by her side.
