Dwayne, I'm so sorry for the loss of your son.  May you find strength in God and your family during this time.

Ryan, you were my 1st and last nephew.  I know God has mysterious ways and reasons for the things that he does.  He brought you to us with much happiness and took you away with sadness; yet it brought the family closer which is what I know you would have wanted.  You were always a bright spot in everyones lives. I will forever hold a candle up and praise God for the years that I had with you! Much love, Aunt Krissa

Ryan you were my fist born grandchild. I didn't know how I would get thru the passing of my mom. For she had passed away in Dec. 1985. But God sent you to us on her birthday and I always will know that you helped me heal. I just don't know why you were taken from us so early, but I will trust God and someday He will tell us. So many miss you here and we wish we could just go with you, but we have to wait in his time. Love you so much. Grandma Taylor

my son, my beloved oldest son.  I had such a beautiful speech written for you for your rehearsal dinner.  I should have read it to you the last time we spoke on that Sunday.  I am so very very sorry for what you had to experience in your last moments.  But I know you are at peace with your savior.  He swooped you up and took you home, a home where we will live together for eternity.  I will never move away like I did and we will work live love and play together.  I miss you so much here.  The sun came out the day you were born ry.  I love you always and forever.  Mommy

Laurel, Mike, and family,

We are so deeply sorry to hear of Ryan's passing.  We have many fond memories of Ryan, Spencer, and Haley as youngsters playing with our girls when you lived next door to us on Crescent Avenue.  The love Ryan had for his Mom, little sisters, and family was very evident to us back then.  We know he will be missed very, very much.  You are all in our family's prayers...

R emember me as I was, We will meet again.
Y our sorrow is understood right now, but I am in no pain,

N o, the timing wasn't right, but it wasn't mine, it was His.

Z est for life is what I had, remember me that way,
I mpatient to make Abby my wife, I could have been careless that day
M indful that bad things can happen, and life can be real short,
M ercy surrounds us one and all, and that's a really good start.
E very one deals in thier own way, it's neither wrong or right,
R emember time will heal the wounds that are so raw today.
M emories will keep you close, it is the only way,
A nswers come in lots of time, you'll figure it out someday,
N ow live your life as best you can, we'll be together one day.

H ow very much I want you all to know I am at peace,
I  was engulfed in Angels wings, we soared away with ease,
S afe in Gods beloved arms, it was awesome to say the least.

L ooking down on each of you from my Heavenly home above.
I hid my love in places that I knew you couldn't miss,
G uarding you with Angel wings, to bring you happiness.
H elp each other all you can, take the time to talk,
T hen practice tolerence like I did instead of finding fault.

S haring in your lives has always been my greatest pleasure
H elping you live and love and learn is a memory I'll treasure.
I nstill into your children the belief that God knows best,
N ever let them doubt their faith, the Lord will do the rest.
E mbrace the strength I've given you to bow your head and pray,
S on of God, look after them and guide them on their way.

O nly you can give the strength they need to comfort them,
N ow bless each dear one left behind, in Jesus' name, Amen

Dwayne, No father should have to bury their son. When I told Brent what had happened, he reminded me of the time we took the boys canoeing down Rock Creek - I had forgotten about that. He remembers how much fun he and and Ryan had playing in the water. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

No farewell words were spoken.
No time to say goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it,
And only GOD knows why.
