Ryan is someone that was loved by so many. Ryan’s passing will forever leave a hole in most of our hearts. As I write this I find it hard to find the words to say. Ryan was my little brother that I shared the same bed with from his birth until I eventually moved out of the house, so needless to say we always had a special bond.
I try to find comfort thinking back on one of the most significant moments I had with him. I remember sitting in my office at work and getting a call from Ryan telling me he was getting married to Alex last minute and told me it would mean a lot to him if I could get ordained online to officiate his wedding. I thought about it and was like will I guess I could plan that and do it. Ryan then responded by telling me that they were getting married in 3 days. I remember how honored I felt and quickly got online and found the fastest course to get ordained. I remember showing up at his wedding and he was just so happy to be marrying the love of his life. That is a special moment between us that I will carry with me forever. Ryan I love you so much and hate to imagine this world without you.
