Ryan you were the greatest son a dad could ever have caring, polite, thoughtful and many more positive qualities. All a parent wants for there kids is to be safe and happy you have both now. Grandpa and Aaron will take care of you Grandpa will probably spoil you and teach you bad habits and I'm ok with that. I will miss snowmobiling with you were such a good rider I always liked riding behind you and seeing you improve every year. You will still ride with in memory! (Oh and by the way I'm going to ride with your helmet because your helmet is way better then mine!) Love You Forever DAD

I only met Ryan once. He Just started as a tech here at Accuray with me last week. Although he was only here one day, we are all hurt by the news of his passing. That one day here he was bubbly , full of personality and all smiles . Wish I would have had the pleasure of getting to know him better . Hugs to all of his friends and family
