Another year without you here. Very sad, but I got to spend some time with Mama Dukes today and it was a nice visit. Until you get to be together again, we will love and take good care of her for you. I love you, beautiful man.

Some fun times videos. Love this beautiful boy. 💔❤️

You are truly missed Ryan Ellis. Ill never forget your big heart.
Joan I pray for you constantly 🙏🏿 and I love you. Your strength to get through every day speaks loud volumes of Faith and strength from God

Ryan ❤️ it has been 5 years, but feels like yesterday you went to be with Jesus and I can never forget your sweet face and how much you are loved by everyone that knows you.  

You are so loved by your aunt and missed like crazy ❤️🥰😍 aunt Connie

I'm going to spend your 39th birthday with our sweet Marian. She's coming over to spend time with me, going out to have breakfast. To say that I miss you so much, is an understatement. Have I told you lately, that I love you? I do. I always will. ❤️🙏

It’s your 39th birthday, today. Our Marian is coming over to spend time with me. To say I miss you would be an understatement. Have I told you lately, that I love you? I do. I always will.

Hey, sweet and beautiful man! Another birthday, and not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and the image of your joyful smile. I wish you were here to celebrate your earthly birthday with your mama and me. We’ll be having breakfast and an overdue personal visit. You will be with us in both of our hearts. I love you!
Cousin Marian

My sweet Ryan.  It’s been four years since you left us. Sometimes four years seem like the blink of an eye, and sometimes it feels like an eternity. I miss you terribly on this rock we live on, but I figure you and your Aunt Jane are enjoying being together. She always adored you and I know the feeling was mutual. Your mama is spending the day with people who love her, and her faith is her rock until she can be with you again. Sending my love, 
Marian

Here we are. Four years, later. How can it be? The pain is still here. I still miss you so much. I can't wait to see and be with you. I know you are so happy, whole. You're with Jesus. I'll be with you, when the Lord is ready for me. Until then. I love you so much. ❤️💔

Ryan you are so loved and missed by me and I know your mom and we can't wait to see you in heaven soon.  Just know you are so very missed and I can still remember how cute you were as a toddler when Kathy and Rusty would play with you and when it was time for you to go home, oh my you would throw yourself on the ground and make it very hard on your mom.  Yes, those were the best of times and I remember them well.
I love you and miss your sweet face Ryan and will see you soon ❤️😍😍❤️ your Aunt Connie

Happy birthday sweet Ryan and I love you and miss you so much...... praise God for you and you were always the best ❤️😘💋❤️

Another Heavenly birthday today. I miss your smile so much, but I know you’ll be smiling at your mama and me as we visit today. She’s doing well, although she misses you terribly and thinks of you every day. Until we meet again, we’ll mark your day with our special time in your honor. Love you long time, my lovely man!

Dear sweet Ryan. As I sit here with family enjoying their company on this Easter Sunday,  you're constantly at the forefront of my mind.  You're so very missed! I love you so much,  sweet man.  Until we can be together again,  we're watching over mama dukes & keeping you alive in our hearts. ❤


I’m missing you today, every day. Sad but, happy that you’re with Jesus. You’re free, happy, alive with Him. Have I told you lately that I love you? I do, I always will. ❤️💔

Dear beautiful Ryan,
Another year without your perfect hugs, sharp sense of humor, and gorgeous smile. I remind myself every time I’m sad about you leaving us, that you’re fine and we’ll get to see and enjoy each other again. That restores my sense of peace. You don’t have to worry about Mama Dukes. She has a dedicated circle of family and friends who continue to love and watch out for her until you can see her again.

Continue to fly high and Rest In Peace. Our love will always connect us. Your loving cousin,  Marian

Another great picture of Ryan. He was on vacation and so happy. ❤️❤️❤️

I love this happy picture of Ryan. So cute and playful ❤️❤️❤️

Ryan, tomorrow is your birthday and I think about how much you were loved and how much you are missed ❤️😘 especially by your Mama.  I know you are safe in the Makers hands and He created you and loves you so much, I can't wait to see you again sweet man.  Love you Ryan and will always miss you♥️♥️

Joanie I know you are reliving with equal pain and helplessness today, two years since your sweet Ryan left you. May God continue to bless you and give you strength to cope with the greatest loss a mother could endure.

Another year has passed without you with us on this earth.  I sure do miss you! I take comfort in knowing you’re fine where you are and that I’ll see you again, but it still hurts that I can’t hear your voice, get a hug, or trade funnies with you.  I talk to your mama almost every day, and she has a loving group of friends and family to fill what we can of the void you left. She is well loved. Till we meet again, sweet man!  I love you,

Marian

Hard to believe it’s been 2 years, today. You are loved and missed. Have I told you lately that I love you? My beautiful boy. 

Sweet Ryan. I’ve been thinking about you all morning on your birthday. I can almost feel the last time you hugged me. I never got to see you in this life again, but the memory of that hug still makes me smile! You were the apple of my mom’s eye, Ryan. She loved it when you visited. She always glowed when talking about your manners, helpfulness, and how you were delightful to sit and talk with. I’m sure she was there to welcome you into heaven. You were such a good son to your mama and she was so proud of the man you grew into. You always made sure to openly express your love for her verbally, in writing, and in all the things you did for her. I sure do miss you, sweet man, but I feel better knowing that we’ll see each other again. ❤️

I didn't catch an error on my post. It should have said it was a day that I wasn't prepared for. 

Today marks a terrible one year anniversary that I was prepared for. My love for you has not diminished. If anything, it has gotten stronger. I love you so much my beautiful boy. Have I told you lately that I love you? I hope and pray that you still feel my love for you. I can't wait to see you and talk to you, again. Love, Mama Dukes 

I’m thinking of you today, sweet man. I miss knowing that even if I didn’t physically see you often enough, you shared this earth with me. You were a good son to your loving mama, and I’m watching over her from here while you watch over her from there. I’ll carry the last bear hug I got from you at the hospital forever! I love you ❤️ 

I went to school at Calvary with Ryan and i have many wonderful memories of him he was so sweet! It makes me so sad to hear about this. I am praying for his family and know that God will comfort the many hurting hearts.

I remember Ryan at Victory Baptist Church.

My boys grew up with him.

Sweet young man!

Prayers lifted!!





I remember Ryan as a preteen.  Going to Church. He was a great joy to be around. He had trusted the Lord as his Savior...so I know I will see him again in heaven. 

Ryan, I can remember the day you were born and how happy your Mom was to hold you in her arms.  It was such a happy day!  As time has passed, it was always a joy to get that big hug and have you call me “Aunt Deb”.  Your love of life and knowing how hard you worked, always impressed us all, especially your Mom!  She knew just how smart and capable you were in so many ways.  Your infectious smile and handsome face will truly be missed for just a while, for we will meet again one day, and how wonderful that will be!  Love you Kiddo!  ❤️

My dear young cousin Ryan. I’m heartbroken because I won’t see your beautiful smile or get a hug from your loving arms again. I’m heartbroken for your precious mama, whom I love beyond words. I’m heartbroken for your loving dad, for Sarah, for Steven, and for the myriad of other people who will carry your physical loss with them. You touched us all in individual ways with your zest for life, your care, your helpfulness, and your sweetness. I cry as I write this, but I know this separation from us all is only temporary. Fly high, drive fast and play hard, sweet man. Until we meet again. I love you.

Ryan was given to me as a gift from the Lord, a  little over 34 years ago. He was the best son a mother could have had the pleasure of raising, nurturing and releasing to become the beautiful man he was. There are no words to express how much I love you, and that love will never fade, it will only become stronger. I have peace, knowing that you are with the Lord, you are free and happier than you have ever been. Until I see you again, and I will, I will try to be strong and safe for you. I know that is what you  would want for me. I know because you told me, as did your friends, that you loved me so much. That means everything to me. I hope that you are still aware that I am proud to be your mother and of the man you were. I’ll see you, again my beloved son. Love, Mama Dukes.

Hello, my name is Heather. I have known Ryan ,if I can remember right since kindergarten, me personally I just turned  34.  This is something I never expected to happen.  But, of course who does, I am still in shock! I wish I could have just seen him one more time and just gave him a huge hug! Honestly, I haven't talked to Ryan in about 2 years, but have a lot of memories with him. When we were younger we grew up together and went to the same schools. We had our,  little group Ryan, John Simms, Kristen Belknap, Raquel Pellegrino, and me. We always hung out together every day for years. We were all very close! As we got older we all kind of separated but still see some of you every now and then. Actually, my husband Tim tried to teach him how to climb trees!  He tried so hard it was to funny, but he gave it his all. Ryan was a great friend and was always making somebody laugh, he was full of jokes! My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his family and friends!Ryan you will always be missed and remembered! RIP Ryan Ellis.
Love always,
Your forever friend,
Heather Bruce Baslee


My sweet nephew Ryan, you will always be in my heart.  I love your sweet mama like a sister and I know what a special place she has in her heart for you.  You will be missed till we see you again in heaven sweet man.  Love you much and will never forget you.....❤❤❤❤

Ryan I’ll always remember all or many phone calls and playing poker with you for candy. Of course you won and would have kept it all if The kids hadn’t given you the sad eyes. And I’m so glad we got to see you in Dallas back in November it was a really great day and I will forever cherish that day. I love you so so much big my favorite brother and I’ll always be your little sister 
Love Sherry

Some of my earliest memories have Ryan in them, I knew him that long.  Ryan was always a source of inspiration for both me and my cousin Brad, always excelling at life like some sort of life professional!  It was always encouraging for me to see how much Ryan would take care of his Grandmother toward the end of her years.  He was a great grandson, a great son, and a one of a kind friend.  Love you Ryan!

I only met Ryan a few times in his life. As a child he was always engaging and a joy to be around. I mostly remember all the times I talked to his mother Joan, my cousin. He was a loving son and a good friend to others. Ryan was the shining star in Joan's life and he always strived to be the very best man he could be.
To his Mother Joan and friends I leave the words from Scripture, II Corinthians 3:1-7 "Blessed is God...the God of all comforts...who comforts us in all our tribulation." May the abundant grace of our all sufficient Lord and Savior bring you comfort, hope and peace in the days ahead. Be comforted in the promise of II Cor.5:8..."To be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord". 
We love you. Joe and Marcy

I have know Ryan for along time my kids grew up with him and went to school with Ryan , he was always such a nice looking very well mannered respectfully behaved kid who LOVED his mother and Grandmother just such a good boy who grew up to be not only handsome extremely smart  but his mother always taught him to be respectful towards others  and even as young man he was very much that way . I use to tell my daughter why don’t you go for Ryan he’s got it all! She said “ Mom Ryan is like my Brother “ Oh well Joan and I tried! I know Ryan knew the Lord personally for that I’m happy to know he is one of his very Beautiful Angels now . Rest In Peace sweet Ryan we will always remember you🙏🏼

Ryan, I only knew you as a very young child and later through the mother and grandparents who loved you dearly.   My dearest memory of you is from your grandmother sharing your conversation you had with your grandfather  about his need for Jesus.  I thank God you knew and shared Jesus as a child and today can stand in His presence.  You will be missed and  your memories cherished.  Your physical loss will be greatly mourned but hope in Jesus provides comfort for each new day knowing we will one day be reunited in heaven through Christ.

Ryan's precious memory will remain deeply in the mind of his mother Joan. She saw to it that he grow up with a foundation grounded in the Word of God and the church. He was a precious joy to her.
For me as a cousin I was blessed by various correspondence from Joan  about Ryan growing up in the Baptist church and school.
At his Grandmother Louise's funeral we met in person for the last time. Later he shared with me via the Internet photos of some of his European adventures.
Ryan, you are truly missed. See you in heaven. 

I have spent many afternoons with Ryan. A scavenger hunt across Orlando. Balancing acts in tree limbs with chain saws. Hours of him helping me build an electric chair for Halloween. But the one that stands out high and above the rest of course would be sky diving out of a tin can with wings. Where I was more than happy for it to be over and safe on the ground, Ryan could not wait to go again. He was like that. Always ready for the next adventure. I will miss our talks and time spent together. 

Ryan and I were friends from day one. He would swing me around by my ankles when I was a kid. Ryan was the best at everything he did. I remember when he took to martial arts. I was there the day he kicked an 80lb punching bag so hard it hit he ceiling on the carport, putting a big hole in it. Ryan was also very smart. At one point he was my math tutor. Ryan was a truly amazing person. He will always be missed.
