It's amazing how one person can touch so many, even through nothing more than messages on a webboard.

Ryan was with us from some of the earliest incarnations of EN World, and he's always been a pleasant person to chat with on here. I can only take consolation in the fact that he's no longer suffering, and hope he found the peace he was looking for.
 

Somehow I always thought he would beat this thing. :(

Maybe we'd all feel better if we turned this thread into one where people posted their fondest memories of him? There must be alot because I know he had alot of friends here.

I'll start it, and if anyone feels like adding a memory they are more than welcome.

I didn't know him as well as alot of people. Interacted with him a few times though. And the one thing that really caught my attention was how willing he was to help someone and share ideas. Angelsboi was a good sounding board for ideas. Not only would he encourage people with their ideas, you always could also find a few nuggets of info in what he shared.

RIP Angelsboi, your friends will miss you.
 

I liked when he, as an Early-adopter of Mutants and Masterminds asked for some advice about why his supervillain was getting the snot pummelled out of him by the heroes, what was wrong with the build?

We were like "Dude, all he does is turn into a motorcycle...that ain't exactly Galactus if you get what I'm saying" :)

That was it. A motorcycle. He finally said it best himself in an email "How afraid would you be of a sentient motorbike if you could control the forces of Magnetism"

He had a point:)
 




:(

I only met him for a few days, but Ryan was a great guy. He was sweet, kind, giving and fun-loving.

Blessed be, Ryan. Peace to you, and comfort to your friends and family. We'll all miss you.
 

Thanks to the person who posted that information from Ryan's LiveJournal.

Tonight, a young man who was in terrible pain was eased from that pain while surrounded by those who loved him and whom he loved. All across the world, many people who only knew him by a handle that told of his boyish adoration of a TV star and by his stunning personality and enthusaism for the past-time was all shared were praying for him, thinking of him, mourning for him.

Tonight, a young man may have died, but an angel got his wings. And those were well deserved, I think.

May the gods he knew usher him kindly into what lies beyond, and may the gods of those left behind comfort them.

Thanks, everyone. He couldn't have asked for better friends.

(As an aside, I am getting information on where flowers and the like can be sent, for those inclined. Thanks.)
