The photograph shown in this Memory may be low definition, and casual; however, this image of Ryan with Grace will forever hold a special place in our hearts.  Ryan was sitting with Grace that Monday morning, taking selfies, and emailing them to the family.  He took this picture a few minutes before he passed away.  We are grateful to always remember Ryan as a wonderful son, and a happy father.

I remember when Ryan was born.  He and my daughter were day care friends.  I watched him grow into a nice young man.  I saw him at Harris Teeter every week.  He was a knowledgeable employee and always greeted you with a hell-o.  I miss seeing him at the grocery and looking at the smile on his face when he talked about his wife and daughter.

I am sorry for the delay.  I was made aware of Ryan passing a few days again.  To his family, no words can ease the pain of your loss, but if caring thoughts can help, they are with you right now.

Ryan was our neighbor for 14 years, and you couldn't meet a nicer guy.  He was kind, friendly, and helpful.   I think we spent the most time together while shoveling snow from our shared driveway over the years, especially 2009/10!  He always stopped to say hello when passing our house, and he was so easy to talk to.   

I remember Ryan and Cheryl coming over to visit when we had our youngest daughter 6 years ago, and Ryan's joy in holding her - I knew he'd be a great dad someday.  So  we were thrilled for Ryan and Emily when Grace was born.  In the last few years, Ryan's life revolved around Grace and Emily, and he was always willing to stop and share pictures and stories about Grace.  It was  fun to see how happy she made him.   His love for her was so easy to see. 

We are thinking of you Cheryl, Tom, Sean, Emily and Grace - and praying that your best memories bring you some comfort.

Ryan Kavanagh was a son-in-law that Beth and I could be proud of. He was smart, hard-working and loving towards his wife (our daughter) Emily and his much loved young daughter, Grace.

He had a wonderful knack of being able to nicely chide his mother-in-law while, at the same time, ingratiating himself to his father-in-law.  His sense of humor and as his strong character will be greatly missed.

Our deepest sympathies are directed towards those who feel his loss the greatest, his parents, Tom and Cheryl Kavanagh and his brother Sean.


My heart is so sad the loss of this young man.  I knew Ryan as a baby and growing up from the Church of Our Saviour. I remember him as an acolyte .
I heard of his marriage and the birth of his daughter and was so happy for him.
I pray that God will surround the family with love while they mourn.
An irreplaceable loss.

I absolutely hate that I’m having to write this.  I knew Ryan from work - he was on of my favorite people.  We talked Marvel, Excalibur, & cheese!  I know he was a great dad cause of his varied interests.  Emily & Grace were definitely the lights of his life - he always had new pics to show me when I came by.  The world has just lost one of its more interesting human beings.  May you RIP.  Deepest condolences to Ryan’s friends & family.

My father (Don and Emily's cousin), Rev. Bruce Johnson,  had the honor of marrying Emily and Ryan. He said that they were a very loving couple and that Ryan was such a fine young man. Unfortunately,  he has advanced alzheimers now or he would also be writing a comment.  We are so sorry about Ryan's passing. We are praying for Emily and sweet Grace, the Kavanagh Family, and the Moon Family. May God bring you comfort during this terribly hard time. 
With Love,
Shux, Viki and Kelly 

Ryan’s beautiful life was blooming with his marriage to Emily and the birth of  his daughter, Gracie.  His passing is heartbreaking and a shock to us all most especially his loving family.  My prayers go out to you all that God may hold you close now while you grieve and forever as you live your life with his memory and spirit beside you every step of the way. 

No truer words will ever be spoken when I say "heaven truly gained an angel ".  I have known Ryan since he was 8 years old.  Ryan was the sweetest most kind person I know.  He did not have a mean bone in his body.  He was a big softy!! Ryan loved chatting with me when I would see him about all kinds of things he was doing or interested in.  In the last year and a half our chats revolved around the light of his life, his little baby girl Grace.  I know he loved her with all his heart.  The sun rose and set on her.  His wife Emily and his baby girl were his life's happiness.  I am truly heartbroken for his family, his wife Emily and mostly his baby girl.   My thoughts are prayers are with all of you <3 

My husband Ed and I also never met Ryan, but have known Don and Beth Moon since before Emily was born. Our sincere condolences to Emily and their daughter.

I did not know Ryan, and only met Emily just once, but I have known Don Moon for many years.   I send my sympathy to Emily, Don, Beth and the family.  Ryan was  young and it is such a shame that this had to happen to him.  

My condolences, Jan Hof
