It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Ryan on Sunday, October 11, 2009.  He is survived by his loving family; father and mother, Michael and Theresa; sisters Jessica and Kellie; and his extended family including his grandmothers Ida Grant and Lesia Graham; and his many aunts, uncles and cousins all of whom will miss him dearly. Ryan was an easy-going young man who loved sports, music and travelling with his family on the many vacations they took together. He graduated from Dr. Charles Best in 2008 and was most recently enrolled in the electrical program at BCIT. Warm-hearted and soft-spoken with a great sense of humour and beautiful smile, Ryan will be sadly missed by us all and remain forever in our hearts. Prayers will be offered at St. Francis de Sales Parish, 6610 Balmoral Street, Burnaby, B.C. at 7 pm on Thursday, October 15th. Funeral Mass to be held at 1pm on Friday, October 16th at St. Francis de Sales Parish. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Vancouver Sun Children’s Fund.
