In memory of Ryan
One time while visiting Linda & Bobby, as usual, I asked how each family was doing and what they were up to lately. Just getting an updated on everyone. Linda told me about Ryan's Sneakers. That Ryan had an online business -refurbishing Sneakers and embellishing them with color and design. I saw pictures of his work and was so impressed. That as young as he was at the time to have the talent and skill to do such impressive work and turn it into a business... I will never forget that it was he who inspired me to do my own online thing.
Another time I was visiting, Ryan stopped by Linda's & Bobby's on his way home. He was all decked out in his gear riding a bright green motorcycle. He didn't have time to come inside so we all stood outside talking and catching up in traditional Wallace style. He was all smiles and happy telling us (mainly Bobby) about what he was doing and what he was planning to do in the future. So enthusiastic and full of life, so precious. I will remember him like he was that day, full of energy and love & taking time to visit his grandparents and share his news with them.
Ryan touched all of our lives. I hope comfort can be found knowing that he was loved. I am so saddened that he left us too soon. Such a sweet young spirit. May God bless and comfort you all. Aunt Judy
