Ryan's Funeral Fund

In the early hours of May 5th, 2017, my cousin Ryan was taken to heaven. His parents, my Uncle Jerry and Aunt Liz, are of course deeply saddened by the sudden loss of their only child. I know that they both greatly appreciate all of the outpouring of love and support as they grieve the loss of their loving son.

Unfortunately, since Ryan's death was unexpected my aunt and uncle were not prepared for this.  They could really use some help from all of us as they make all of the arrangements. I'm asking for any contributions, big or small, that you could give to help them give Ryan the send off he deserves.

I personally remember my little cousin being very quiet and shy. But in looking at his Facebook page, he definitely had me fooled. He seemed to be a jokester who was loved by many. No one can doubt that Ryan's heart was always full of love. He cared deeply about everyone around him. Ryan was also a devoted father to his beautiful daughter Lilah and a wonderful son to my aunt and uncle. He was a good-hearted person who wanted nothing more than to put smiles on others' faces. A young soul taken way too soon.  We love you and will miss you, Ryan. Rest in peace, cousin.
