Our wonderful Ryan took his life and joined the Lord in heaven on November 13th, 2018. We may never fully understand the pain he felt, but we will always remember the joy in our memories with him.

Ryan was a loving husband-to-be, a devoted son, supportive big brother, and a true friend. He found joy in trying new recipes in the kitchen, watching the Seahawks kick butt, and playing with our two dogs, Benji and Chewy. Ryan had a gift of working with people and understanding the complex mechanics of mining. This passion is what took him out of California, and on to many adventures in Colorado, Wyoming, and finally Tucson, Arizona. It was there that we fell in love, began a life together, and made memories that will last forever.

If you ask me, Ryan's most notable quality was the way that he always took care of those he loved. So it is in his memory that we'd like to help others be taken care of, and find their way out of the darkness. If you are willing and able, please consider donating to this cause, and to those of you who do donate, thank you for your support. 

**To anyone who feels this darkness and is considering suicide as a way out, please reach out to someone or call the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-8255**
