Ryan was a young volunteer at Glensheen when I was a staff member mnay years ago. He was a joy to work with as he always had a smile on his face, willing to assist with any events and laughing all the way. I would run into Ryan once in awhile and want to remember those memories about this vibrant talented young man. Rosemary Kenigsberg Duluth, MN
