Happy heavenly birthday, Ryan. It’s hard to believe this is the second birthday we haven’t been able to celebrate with you, and the second year without being able to embarrass you with a barrage of decorations.
We still find ourselves expecting you to come around the corner or yell out “that’s what she said” when we didn’t even realize you were listening, praying somehow this has all just been a terrible nightmare.
Every day, we do our best to honor your memory. Watching your children grow has been both heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. We love seeing pieces of you live on through them, while missing you more than words can say.
We all love and miss you so much, Ryan, and pray you’re looking down on us every day. Though you are gone, we will never forget you or the incredible impact you had on everyone lucky enough to know you. Forever loved. Forever missed.
So in honor of your heavenly birthday we are sharing a flashback photo to when you thought taking a selfie on Brandy’s would not have repercussions 😂😂.
Love and Miss you!
