Ryan's Story

Ryan Cody Stuck had the most beautiful dimples. Caring and thoughtful would be an understatement to describe Ryan's nature. Ryan always went the extra mile to take care of the people around him. He loved everyone and had a big heart. Without anyone knowing, he signed up to be an organ donor and he was always donating blood. Ryan would have given anything to anyone. He would go out of his way to give homeless people a dollar, or whatever he could.

From football to wrestling, snowboarding to golfing, Ryan did it all and gave it his all. Everything was accomplished at 110%. Ryan looked up to his two older brothers and he always tried his hardest to beat them at whatever activity they were doing. Ryan also had two nieces and a nephew that he would do anything for; he loved being an uncle to them.

Unfortunately, on April 10, 2010, Ryan's life came to an end. Friends and family were devastated. Ryan was only 22 years old and full of life.

"It's a very sad and painful situation to lose a child so young, but it's a great feeling to know he did someone good," said his parents Mike and Brenda. "We received one message that his liver made it. We didn't know that we would feel so good about it. We are sad and excited at the same time, to know Ryan did something special and made other lives live on.".

Ryan's family had a memorial golf tournament for him one year after he passed away. "You can't believe how many people told us that they registered to be a donor due to Ryan's story," said Mike and Brenda. Ryan is still making a difference in people's lives.
