Even back then, Ryan's smile could light up the universe. That bright spirit is still shining in our memories & hearts and I hope his amazing legacy will warm your heart with memories that comfort you. My life was enriched by knowing him for a brief time. I would be happy to share pictures with you,when Ryan was little, when you are readyJeriann Willisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064856796270397312.post-23967586955253400082010-04-13T08:07:53.887-06:002010-04-13T08:07:53.887-06:00Tasha,

Please accept these words as my thank you to you and Ryan – though they surely do not do my gratitude justice.<br /><br />I worked with you at Long View - though our interactions were brief you made a measureable impact on my life. Reading yours as well as Ryan’s blog nearly every day has kept perspective at the forefront of my mind when facing day to day ‘challenges’ as well as deeper life experiences and journeys. With deepest sincerity I want to thank both you and Ryan for sharing your journey(s), as I followed your ups and downs I grew more attached to you and your story. I was filled with hope and excitement when there were the ups and cried when there were the downs. I shared your story with everyone I know in hopes that our collective energy would reach you both in your times of need. Though I only met Ryan a couple of times when I read the news of his passing I felt as though I had lost a friend. His open candid blog allowed a portal to be opened where individual journey paths had the opportunity to cross as well as what might be the greatest life lesson to be shared in a safe and comfortable environment. What to me is the greatest achievement of Ryan’s story is that, because of him, I have learnt to Stop, Drop and Smile and also, because of Ryan, I have shared his timeless lesson with others, encouraging them to really stop and think about their life and its meaning. It was heart warming to hear the stories shared of Ryan during his Celebration of Life, how fortunate he was and you are to be surrounded by such amazing people – you truly reap what you sow – another life lesson.<br /><br />May you continue on the journey set before you hand in hand with Talyn knowing that each step that you take, every decision made, and every new challenge faced that you have Ryan with you. The legacy he left, and the mark made here in this time transcends all allowing you to live in the moment knowing he is in you. <br /><br />Warmest RegardsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064856796270397312.post-79649678916407731832010-04-09T01:34:50.211-06:002010-04-09T01:34:50.211-06:00Please know in the days and weeks and months to co...Please know in the days and weeks and months to come, that we are all still praying for you and thinking of you.

Once was hard, twice was a lesson learned. Everyday is a gift to be together,to unravel the mysteries of being human,the warmth we feel when we are with each other.

Although I am very saddened by Ryan’s condition I feel so honored to have known him. As an IG client I’ll never forget my first meeting with Ryan. He told me the story about his time as a pilot and how his life quickly changed. I was inspired at that moment and now 5 years later he continues to inspire me. I’m sharing your story with as many people as I can because I believe in the power of prayer and I believe in the power of Ryan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064856796270397312.post-80206567999432128232010-03-31T15:53:04.335-06:002010-03-31T15:53:04.335-06:00Hey Tash....thanks so much for having the energy a...Hey Tash....thanks so much for having the energy and motivation to even write updates in your blog.

Right now, he is the first person on our minds in the morning and the last person we think of at night. <br /><br />Besides the support of those of you who are keeping watch over him, Ryan's own "fighting and stubborn nature" must be all that is allowing him to hang onto the life that he loves so much.<br /><br />The pictures you have posted are full of life, love and good times. They are the stuff of memories. They are sure to go on providing you and Talyn with flashes of Ryan's presence in your lives.<br /><br />Thank you for the generosity and kindness of spirit that you have shown in giving us this latest update, Tasha. Even when you are down to just "a couple of moments a day" when you "get that little bit of Ryan" you are willing to share him with us. You astound us.!<br />With our loving support,<br />Louise and DavidLouise and Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00374257842923381357noreply@blogger.com
