We know that the best thing we can do for him now, is to live the life he would have wanted to have with us. One full of laughter, big hugs, many smiles and sharing it all with our friends. His blog and his book have been the way that he hoped to communicate what he has learned to as many people as possible. So that no one else would have to go through what he did, to learn the lessons.
His blog will be kept up as long as possible, so that you can check in from time to time to remember the amazing gift he left us all. But it doesn't seem right for me to post on it anymore - it was his place.
I leave you with two reminders of his life. They are both songs that his best friend Kevin found over the past few months to help us remember what he would have wanted us to. The first one we played at his celebration of life, in case you were there. The other is another song filled with messages that Ryan believed as well.
Our love and thanks to you all for helping us smile a little bit more throughout this journey.

Just wanted to let you know that the Contact Us page on the www.stopdropandsmile.com website is not working on either Safari or Internet Explorer. Each time I try, I get the error "Please fill your message".
All I want to say is, yes! Yes! Yes! You’re so right. I want to get behind this so much. You speak with so much authority, so much spirit, I feel as though you’ve definitely hit the nail on the head. Good job with this. Please keep brining us more because we need more of your type of blogger.
It was a pleasure to meet Ryan at Michael Lepitre's house, when Ryan shared about his hopes and his struggles. May God watch over your family and may you seek Him for comfort and refuge.
Please let me know if you need anything or if there is any way we can help.
God bless you and your family,

I just read Ryan's book. What a wonderful message and reminder to me to "uncover and nurture the happiness that can be found around every corner of even the worst situation."
This book is truly a gift that he has shared with the world.
