I am so saddened to hear about Ryan. We met when I was in 6th grade and I spent a lot of time with the Eaton brothers. We had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs especially on the houseboat. I’ll remember him fondly and think of him often.
My condolences to Ryan's family. I first met Ryan when him & his family lived in Dixon on 3rd. My family has known his since we were kids. Our older brothers are friends so that led to us hanging out a lot when we were little. Unfortunately lost touch with him over the years with life & all. Last time I saw him he was still talking about the packers.
Ryan was one of a kind…great sparkle, could make us laugh! He loved being a big brother, dad, uncle, I think because he was a kid at heart. I have lots of great memories of big holidays together with all of us long ago!
Matt, Lindsay, Julie, and especially Jordan: The last time I was with Ryan, he spoke a lot about the four of you. There was nothing but love. Through thick and thin. Always. And, yeah, you know Ryan, there were regrets, too. I truly believe they were honest regrets. I thought you should know that. Rest in peace my friend. You don’t have to run anymore.
