Not sure what to say?

Think about U n Uncle Lump, Everyday! Miss you, 2 so very much!

I can't believe it's been 1 year already. Miss you everyday. Love you forever.

Still thinking of you every day buddy.
I love and miss you and your goofiness.
I'm glad you've found your peace, but we all wish we had you here on earth instead. Sleep well big guy. You won't stray far from my heart or thoughts. I've listened to in this photograph and free bird countless times with tear in my eyes and a bitter sweet smile and chuckle remembering the jokes we had about our own music choices.

Ryan, not a day has passed Since the last day I saw you 4 years ago without thinking of you, Without thinking of your constant battle and how I knew as a friend I wasn't the one that was able to help you even though I wanted so badly to be able too. I've felt guilt everyday since then and we hadn't spoke since that one day, and I always regretted it and I always wanted to reach out but didn't know how or what to say. And then I heard the worst news just go in one ear and out the other. Ryan...

We miss and love you so much.... but glad you are no longer suffering. Great, one of a kind friend from a great family.... I'll always cherish the great times from when we were younger. xoxo Love, H & M

Always in my heart pray you now have peace, lov eCaptain Jack and Beth

I am sorry that Ryan is gone. I tried to make him stay with me in treatment, but he didn't want to. If you guys need anything let me know.

RIP RYAN,,,PRAYERS TO ALL.... ROBIN AND MIKE &BLAKE

I knew Ryan in another life. We met something like 11 years ago. We stayed in contact; occasionally checking in on one and other. Every single day since I read that he left us I replay in my mind over and over the times we had together, things that I didn't even know that I remembered. My favorite memory is the day that I was having an awful day, he showed up at my house with a rose, just to make me smile. He was always so good at that; making me smile. He was one of the kindest people I have...
