Sometimes we lose the people we love. I wish I could say "I love you" one last time. But sometimes the universe has different plans. Goodbye, still hard to deal with 2 years later

I am saddened to see that Ryan has passed. I was looking him up , after telling someone I had been to Irwinville,LA once in my life and it was with him visiting his nanny. I got to spend the summer of 2008 ,hanging out with him in Baton Rouge. He was such a nice and selfless person. He was an awesome older brother who was very proud and had a deep love for his younger siblings. My condolences to his family. Monica

I still miss you,my bro. Will see you on the other side. I miss so much your giving side. A brighter flashlight for me at night, a bb gun and mace for the mean dogs at the camp,rough material on the steps so I wouldn't slip. I'm trying to give back to life all the kindness you gave me. With the greatest respect bro. Brenda veltin

First time I met ryan I yelled"Rastafari bro?" He said yes lol. Ryan and I both have an inquisitive side so we had a blast hanging out staying on the internet getting all the answers to questions we ever wanted to know. I loved his fasination with Japan. His learning how to read and write Japanese. I would find Japanese words written on everything lol. I want to honor Ryan's life. His brilliant light shined on me. I admired his giving side, his kind side, his intelligent side and mostly his positive side. He was one of the most exceptional people I've ever met and I miss him I want to wish the Irving family my condolences for their loss Also as Ryan called them "the boys" Arturo and Rylee my greatest sympathy. Your father was a honorable man. With the greatest respect. Brenda Veltin. I miss you my bro
