A MESSAGE FROM GRANDPA...
I am honored and blessed to have shared 28 precious years with my dear grandson, Ryan Gordy.... What an amazing journey! He inspired me with thoughts beyond his years: his love for others, life, and his commitment to a healthy life style.
He and I, together, have experienced what seems to be a lifetime of memories. We were truly a team, grandpa and grandson exploring together. Ryan loved to win - a bond we had in common. We played games of strategy: basketball, chess, and life. His character, integrity and honesty led him to talk the talk and WALK THE WALK. Always a fighter, even when he faced his biggest challenge in life, he never gave up. He never gave up!
Today we will celebrate that strength, that courage, that love, that infectious laughter he shared with us all.
I am so pleased that his mom, Anita, will carry on his legacy of health, wellness and love through the RYAN GORDY FOUNDATION.
