Ryan “JJ” Godbey Memorial

We have been moved by the love and support you’ve shown to us throughout this unimaginable time. Our family is comforted by knowing Ryan has impacted so many, and his memory continues to build community. Thank you all for supporting the search, sharing Ryan’s story, and the countless other ways you’ve shown up for us. Previously, donations have been declined as we’ve felt every effort should be directed toward finding Ryan.

Following the suspension of the search, we are hoping for your support to commemorate and celebrate Ryan. This fundraiser has been created to establish a memorial scholarship in Ryan’s name, so that the impact Ryan has had on all of us will continue to expand. We look forward to sharing more information once the scholarship is finalized ahead of this upcoming school year.

It is our hope that together we can build something that honors Ryan’s life and legacy for years to come. Please note, a formal Celebration of Life will be held on July 29th, additional information will be distributed separately soon.
