Peace...

I have been following Ryan's situation through the boards and have thought about him occasionally over these past months. It is sometimes hard to offer words of comfort or care through electronic media...

When I saw this post tonight...I tried to think of one word that described Ryan through all of his postings on this board in its various iterations. Exuberance sprang to mind...

Carry that exuberance and spirit with you, AB...peace.

A sad day for me

Godspeed Ryan.

 

[Taladas]

He has my prayers and best wishes. May his family find peace and comfort.

 

[resistor]

Damn.

Goodbye, AB. You are missed.

 

[Tewligan]

It's not often that I'm in tears over someone I don't personally know. I'll make an exception today. My best wishes go out to Ryan's loved ones.

Can this news go on the front page, along with a link to contribute to flowers, research, or something? Anything?

 

[resistor]

Yes.

A moment of silence on the front page for Ryan and his family.

I only just discovered this thread tonight; I knew Ryan was seriously ill, but I didn't know it had come to this. I never interacted with him all that much, but once upon a time, I was a Ravenloft writer and he was a fan.

...

This is actually the second time in a few years that cancer has claimed a Ravenloft fan I'd known. Once again, despite not really knowing Ryan (or Marie, who went before him), my throat is tight and I'm struggling for words.

I never met Ryan, but I'm fighting off tears at his passing. My sincerest condolences to his friends and family. He'll be joining Marie in my thoughts for a long, long time to come. They were both too young.

vaya con dios.

I'm glad his pain is over, and I'm glad he went with his friends and family present... Ryan, you're in a better place now. You will be missed.

Go easy bro.
Rest in Peace.
