I am deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend Ryan. My friendship with him was one of the fondest memories of my life. He was pure at heart and soul and I looked up to him as a friend, role model, and a brother. His departure leaves a big hole in my heart and life. I take solace that although we will not meet in this world, we will meet again and rejoice as we did. Ryan will always be in my heart and mind. God bless Ryan and may he rest in peace. 

I met Ryan Nash at UMKC a couple of years ago. While I knew him, I always thought about how humble and resourceful he was; always reading and willing to help those in need, a true servant of the community. Ryan held some of the highest virtues any individual can aspire. He was a caring, generous, highly knowledgable, and outgoing soul to anyone who crossed paths with him. As sad as his passing may be, I try to remember all of the joy he brought my life and the countless members of the UMKC community. I don't know if I will ever be able to live up to the example Ryan set for living a truthful life, but I am glad to have known him so that I may spread the goodness of what he embodied. I could not ask for a better friend. We will miss you Ryan. 

      I was devastated to hear of the passing of my friend, Ryan Nash. Ryan was an extremely kind and warm-hearted individual. He was always willing to help those in need. I was constantly struck by how he would always be the first one in and the last one out when it came to helping others. He was truly one of the best of them. Ryan was also a very intelligent individual. He always had an interesting thing to say. When we conversed, we would always start the conversation on one topic, and because he said something interesting about a tangential subject we would end said conversation miles away from its initial starting point.
	I would like to extend my sincerest condolences to Ryan’s family. You are in my prayers. I can say that Ryan Nash will always have a place in my memories and in my heart. I am certain countless others feel this way too. He was a truly outstanding friend, and I will sorely miss him. God bless you, and God bless Ryan, we for sure were all blessed to have known him.

I was one of Ryan's professors, but became his friend.  He was a fine young man, one whom I respected and valued.  I will miss him.  This was a great loss.  All the best to the family and friends.

I didn’t know Ryan particularly well, but we ended up at pioneer gun club one day with both our moms. Some grumpy dude was being rude and didn’t want to share the range, and Ryan wasn’t having any of it! That was a fun and memorable day filled with good conversation, and we figured out we were both graduating on the same day. I was never able to make it out to any of his UMKC meetings due to evening class conflicts and a very hectic schedule, but it was always in the back of my mind. I wanted to find Ryan at graduation to catch up, explain my flakiness, and high five... but when I heard the news I was crushed. He was only a new friend to me... but someone who made an impression, cared about justice, and I think he left the world a brighter place than he found it. 

Katie and Bill, we are so deeply saddened at your loss. I was at the district soccer game as our good friends great niece is the goalie. Our hearts go out to your family. We pray for comfort and peace for you. 

Jeanne and Ken Leitze
