McDonald Family,
I was a former colleague of Ryan's and had only occasional contact with him over the last several years. When I went to reach out to him today and could not find him on Linkedin where we were connected, I ran a Google search and came across his obituary. I was shocked -- and truly saddened. I do not know what happened to Ryan, but I am so very sorry that you lost him. He was a fierce litigator and a very kind man.
Again, I am so sorry,
Catherine

How do we measure a life? Is it in the moments we remember or the lives that we touch? We enter this life as adventurers and romantics. As explorers and artists. As teachers and leaders. To quantify a life is in the aggregate of our experiences and the love we give back to this world. I am proud to have known Ryan and lucky enough to call him a friend. He gave back to the world with a generous heart and taught us all more about ourselves. Thoughts, prayers, and condolences...

Ryan and I were Law School classmates and we started at lawyers together in our first legal jobs at Bachner Tally. He was such a kind and genuine soul and I am so sad to hear of his passing. I feel lucky to have known him and to have called him a friend. I can’t imagine your pain but can only hope that the love of those around you bring you comfort during this tragic time. I am so very sorry.

Ryan and I were friends and classmates in law school. We have kept in touch these past 18 years and seen each other in NYC, DC, Chicago. I really do not have any words to express how saddened I am at his passing. I have nothing that I can say to make this ok. There is nothing but sadness and I can only imagine as his parents, siblings and family you are devastated beyond belief.
Know that he was a loved and cherished member of our law school family and we all care so deeply about him.
I am so so sorry.
