THIS PAGE IS A TRIBUTE TO OUR GUYS: Their death was a terrible tragedy. We are focusing on their lives, not their deaths. Ryan and Kyle were inseparable. Ryan was always very patient, helping Kyle with the things he loved to do, such as cookie decorating.  Kim was busy supplying cookies.

Ryan and Kyle went to every hayride the last fall of their lives. Kyle always had a smile for his sister, Kim.  Even though it was a cold, winter day Kyle managed to give Kim a grin.  Later, on a scary train ride, Kyle was sitting next to Grandma. Ryan told him to help Grandma because she was a little scared. So Kyle said "Move" to Grandma and called Daddy over to sit with him.

Ryan lifted Kyle off the Trampoline at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Our respite care center will be modeled off of grandma's house, as it was a favorite of Kyle's. A week before they died, Ryan said to Kyle, "I have a surprise for you!" and Kyle answered, as he always did, "Grandma's house?"

Kyle and Ryan attended Kim's home coming parade. Kyle loved Halloween, and has his pumpkin ready to collect candy, though it was only September.

This is one of our favorite pictures of the two. Ryan is helping Kyle play bowling on the computer. Kyle loved any form of bowling. He always engaged everyone to play, and told those trying it out on the Wii exactly how to stand.
