Ryan Family Fund

As many of you know, on December 1, 2019, Peter Ryan, who was 46 years old, beloved by so many, died suddenly and unexpectedly.   Pete was such a giving, loving, and active husband, father, brother, son, uncle, friend, coach, co-worker, and member of the community.  This is an enormous loss for all those whose lives he touched.  But of course, most especially for the three people who were Pete's heart and his world -- his wife, Kelly, and his daughters, Maddie and Catherine.  

As friends and family of Pete, Kelly, Maddie, and Catherine, we are grateful for the tremendous outpouring of support for the Ryan family following Pete's death.  We also know that, following the funeral arrangements and initial period of coming to terms with this loss, there are bound to be financial worries on decisions big and small.  

This fund is intended to help alleviate those financial worries in some small way.  If you are receiving this, you know Pete and Kelly and their kids well.  And you also know that a request like this is not something they would have agreed to without some reservation.  Nonetheless, they are grateful for the outpouring of love and support that has already come their way and recognize that many of you want to help further. 

Please know that any money donated will only be used for Ryan family expenses, which could include small things like holiday and birthday gifts, house projects, and longer term needs like college savings.  

Thank you all so very much in advance as we band together to help Kelly, Maddie, and Catherine, and to remember the man who we will so sorely miss, Peter Ryan.
