Ryan

2010 - 2023

12 years, 8 months of unconditional love, friendship and devotion. Only a Ridgeback family understands this ❤️

One last reading of Library Lion as you left us Friday night. Ushered out to the sound of Morgan’s reading. Surrounded by love, smothered in hugs and kisses. We did it our way, with dignity and by some peace in the universe, divine intervention, everyone home to send you on your journey.

One last walk for a tired body. Over the bridge love, I'm sure Dad was there to meet you.

Heres to loving you for 4634 days, from you first breath to you last. One last boop before you go, Library Ryan.

If love could’ve saved you, you would’ve lived forever.

Nothing is quite right for the level of love, or heartache I have right now. I feel broken. I so badly want to hide it away and keep it private, I want to hide his love away… Keep it just for me. But I’ve shared his story with so many over the last dozen years. So many updates, trials and tribulations, adventures and life.

I have let the world know how in love with Shanab Little King, Ryan, I am. here’s my very raw heart, my broken heart. My sweet Ryan, Ryry, Ryguy, Bubs, Ferdinand, and Library Ryan is for the first time not at my side. My ET and Elliot like love story is over, and a piece of me is gone.

I ask when you see a bloom this spring think of a love story, one that ended with a wink and a boop.

I planted a magnolia where he sun worshipped for over 12 years, till Friday evening. Magnolias bloom in the month he left me. He was my garden pup, I built them all to suit my boy… I even designed and built the newest one to accommodate his tired body just two weeks ago.

Ryans Love Blooms Here.
