My son David worked with Ryan at Kroger and I frequently mistook Ryan for David whenever I was in the store. David is so saddened over Ryan's passing. May God give you all the strength you need during this time of great loss. Ryan will surely be missed by more people than you know. My heart goes out to all of you.
