He would give a friend in need his last dollar. He was a hard worker and good at everything he tried. Ryan loved nature, especially fishing and animals of all kinds. He was a passionate fan of hard rock and heavy metal music, and attended concerts whenever he could. He knew every word and beat of a thousand songs and loved to sing along and play drums on the nearest available surface. Ryan was mechanically inclined and good at anything he tried. He loved to garden and make outdoor spaces look beautiful. He enjoyed cooking for friends and family. He was a loyal friend, brother and son. Ryan meant more to his family and friends than he could ever know. He will be sorely missed by those who loved him. No prior visitation. A Celebration of Life will be held at the convenience of the family. Arrangements by: CASTIGLIA FUNERAL HOME, INC., (716) 824-6435, 873 Abbott Rd., South Buffalo, NY 14220.
