Bobbie, Jeff and family,
Our hearts break for you all. I remember when you were at your moms and I came by with gifts for Ryan. Seems like it was yesterday and he should still be that little baby.
It was fun to watch him grow and to see his accomplishments made over the years.
He has gone far too soon but I have faith he will continue to watch over you all and he is celebrating with our family that went before us. May you find comfort and peace in the days ahead and know how loved you are.
Love you all,
Cousin Shannon
