Ryan was the victim of a hate crime, killed because he was gay. On March 14, 2007, Ryan met up with two acquitances. The men subsequently beat Ryan, stabbed him in excess of twenty times and slit his throat. The men stole his car and fled. Ryan's body was found the next day.
The first of the two defendents was found guilty of second-degree murder and recieved a life sentence. The second defendent refused a plea deal, was convicted of first-degree murder and given a life sentence for his part in Ryan's death.
I didn't know Ryan personally, but in everything I have read about him, he was a wonderful person with a "heart of gold," and great with children. At the time of his death, he was a student majoring in computer science.
Since his death, members of Ryan's family have become advocates for GLBT rights.

Miss Me But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no tears in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little – But not for long
And not with your head bowed low,
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me – But let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take,
And each must go alone,
It’s all a part of the Master’s plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to your friends that we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good works,
Miss me – But let me go.
Perhaps if we could see the splendour of the land
To which our loved ones are called from you and me,
We’d understand
Perhaps if we could hear the welcome they receive
From old familiar voices all so dear
We would not grieve.
Perhaps if we could know the reason why they went
We’d smile and wipe away the tears that flow
We’d wait content
Miss me – But let me go
♥

WHAT HORRIBLE PEOPLE THEY ARE SMALL MINDED PEOPLE THEY SHOULD BE HUNG!! USING AN EXCUSE I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS XXXX
*♥~†~ONLY THE BEST~†♥*
A heart of gold stopped beating two shining eyes at rest, god broke our hearts to prove he only takes the best, god knows you had to leave us, but you did not go a lone for part of us went with you the day he took you home to some you are forgotten to others just a part of the past but to us who have loved and lost you the memory will always last.

When Angels Came From Heaven
When angels came from heaven
And flew away with you
We were left heartbroken
Not knowing what to do
There was no warning signs
Just a pair of pure white wings
And now we miss you very much
And all the joy you used to bring
We feel an empty space inside
Its a place you used to be
And no one can replace you ever
Even though now your free
We keep asking the same question
Why did it have to be you
But theres never any answers
So what more can we do
We just hold on to your memorys
And keep that space open for you
And when we meet again some day
Our skys shall all turn blue
We miss you more each day that passes
As absence makes the heart grow stronger
And we shall love you forever more
No matter where you wander.
