"Dear Cindy and Bill, Was so shocked to pick up the paper and see Ryan's obit. Your 3 boys used to ride with us to Awanas in Blairsburg every week. Cute, entertaining, and full of energy. I cut Ryan's hair the day before school started one year. He wanted it all buzzed off short. To have some fun we shaved the top first and took a picture. Sure wish I still had that pic. Our sympathy is with you-can't imagine your pain-but want you to know our thoughts are with you! Tim and Carol McKinney"
