On August 23rd, our beloved 17-year-old nephew Ryan was involved in a terrible ATV accident at Rancho. He was struck by a side-by-side vehicle, and heartbreakingly, the driver left him behind without help. Thankfully, Ryan was found and rushed to the hospital, where he is currently in the Trauma ICU.

Ryan is intubated and fighting through severe injuries, including multiple broken bones in his face that will require extensive facial reconstruction surgeries. His road to recovery will be long and difficult, with multiple surgeries, intensive care, and ongoing medical treatment ahead.

Ryan has always had a deep love for Rancho and took great pride in being a member of the community. It was a place where he felt most alive and connected, which makes this accident even more heartbreaking.

As Ryan faces this long healing journey, our family is asking for help to ease the financial burden of his medical expenses and ongoing care so that we can focus entirely on supporting him.

Any amount, big or small, will make a difference. If you’re unable to give, please keep Ryan in your thoughts and prayers and share this campaign to help us reach others who may be able to support.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing by Ryan during this incredibly difficult time.
