storylady Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 (edited) My family knew Ryan and his family well. We attended church with him and my daughter also went to school with him. They graduated together. When I called to tell her all she could do was cry and say he was her buddy. Prayers for father, brother and all the family.

FATCAT Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I am friends with this young man's aunt. She is terribly upset by the loss of her nephew. Sending this family lots of prayers and hugs! I am in agreement with lining the streets for Ryan's funeral. It is one of the only things that we can do as a community to show our respect for this soldier's life. Ditto! Prayers to you my friend! I am Ryan's aunt and would like to say thank you on behalf of our whole family. It is a very hard time for all of us. No arrangements have been made as of yet. We are aware that it was on the news and has been released to the press, but we still ask for our private time to grieve. We would love to have the whole town to show their support for our HERO when he returns home. We love him and miss him terribly. The arrangements will be made public as soon as we have them made. Thank you for your prayers and concerns. Hey Smoo, we love you and prayers are going up all over. Take care. Link to post Share on other sites

Purple Rider Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 My thoughts and prayers are with the King family at this very sad time. God Bless you all and thank you Ryan, you are truly a HERO!! I also believe the citizens of Paulding County should line the streets for this young man's homecoming. I cannot tell you how much it meant to my family when Troup County did that for my nephew Corey. Link to post Share on other sites
