Mom to Mom there cannot be any greater pain then what you are experiencing now and will endure moving forward. It was you who created this amazing gift to the world and only you that can share the unique love of a Mom to her child. Sending a huge hug and I will pray for you as you walk a new path. Wendy

My heart goes out to Ryan's family and his little girls. I worked with him for 4 years at Gordon Brothers. He was quiet but always kind, welcoming and friendly. I was bummed to find out he went to work some where else but happy for his new adventure. Then this... So heartbreaking. My prayers go out to all those he left behind.

I worked with Ryan at IPA back in 2006, and I remember him bringing lightheartedness and fun to the office. Being of small stature myself, it was always funny to me that someone so much taller than me far from intimidating, who was so willing to be silly and laugh, who made everyone feel welcome. I'm so sorry to hear about Ryan and send my deepest condolences to his family.
Judi Niermann left a message on November 12, 2020:
I cannot find my words to say how wonderful a son Ryan was. But I did find a poem that helps express how I feel. Ryan, You never said I'm leaving, you never said goodbye, you were gone before I knew it, and only you knew why. A million times I needed you, A million times I cried, if love alone could save you, you never would have died. In life I loved you dearly, in death I love you still, in my heart you hold a place, that no one could ever fill. It broke my heart to lose you. -Author Unknown-
Christi Niermann left a message on November 12, 2020:
I have so many memories that I could share, but rather than events, I mostly remember emotions. Pride when thinking about how smart and ambitious and well-loved you were. Humor when I think about our rough childhood together (after all, we embodied the term 'sibling rivalry'). Gratitude when thinking about how generous you were. Over all of those, love. Love for me, our parents and most of all, your wife and daughters. I wish we could have had one more beer on the beach together before you left. I love you, big brother.

Ashley Meyers left a message on November 10, 2020:
I worked with Ryan in Buffalo Grove, IL from 2006-2010. He was a kind and patient person who I always enjoyed working with. Our small group of 20-something professionals made many fun memories together during that period in our lives. Ryan was always so much fun to hang out with and brought much-needed laughter to many situations. One of the memories I have of him was simply his kindness. If I arrived to work before him, he’d always say, “Good morning, Ashley” as he walked into our cubicle area each morning. It’s these moments that remain with me. His kindness will never be forgotten. My deepest prayers and sympathies go out to his wife, beautiful daughters and family. May God hold you close during this time.

Our son, Paul, was 7 years younger than Ryan. When they were kids, Paul really looked forward to Ryan coming to Kansas City. Ryan called him "Little Dude" and Paul called him "Big Guy". Ryan was so nice to play video games with a boy so much smaller than him and I always appreciated that relationship so much. I loved getting to know Ryan as an adult too, on our beach vacations. He was so much fun and so interesting! He really will leave a hole in so many lives. Love you Danie and Charlie and Violet. Wish we could be there with you. Aunt Tracy
