Ryan was a vibrant and beautiful old soul. He loved to live life everyday to the fullest. His smile and laugh was infectious to everyone around him. His love for his two boys, his whole world, was very apparent. He spent as much time with them as he could on his days off, he never wanted them to be without him in their lives, and his love for them shone through him like a lightning bolt when he spoke of them. He worked for Grant Production Services here in Grande Prairie, a job which he loved and appreciated to have in these hard times. He spoke of the guys quite often and always called his Dad with a story or two.
Ryan had a passion and gift for drawing, he was always doing up a picture or a tattoo for someone or himself. He also did some tattooing, he was so creative and talented. He was a writer of poems too, which he loved to do. He loved to fish which started when he was 4 with his Grandpa. Ryan was always taking pictures flashing his camera this too he enjoyed. You say road trip he says where he loved to travel and make memories.
Ryan you will be greatly missed and forever in our hearts. You will continue on in the lives of your two most precious gifts you left behind – your sons. Love you always.
