Family -1
March 28th, 2011
This is a photo from my dad’s Death Party. All my dad’s nieces and nephews came in from Ohio to be with us for his funeral, say goodbye and celebrate his life. It meant more than they will ever know to have them there with us.
Last night, their dad Joe passed away.
I don’t even know where to start with what a crazy character Joe “Spider” Ryan was. He had a story for everything. He taught me how to shoot a gun. He placed a $100 bet with me when I was 7. He was a plumber, a teacher, a Navy sailer, a lover of the Titanic, a lover of his wife and family, and a restless traveler.
His big personality and spirit will be missed.
Love to you Ryans!
