Ryan’s Story

Site created on December 10, 2018

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

In the early morning hours of Sunday, December 2nd, Ryan was one of  several passengers in a car that was hit by an alleged impaired driver. Ryan remains hospitalized in a hospital near his school for the next few weeks.

Ryan has had several surgeries since December 2 and will undergo several more in the coming days/weeks to help repair other broken bones.  This will be a long road for Ryan but we pray for healing.

Journal entry by Kelly Coakley - Rick

Ryan is home and resettled! What an amazing homecoming with a police escort and people lining the streets of our awesome town to welcome him home! We felt the outpouring of love and support and it was truly remarkable.  It was beautiful to see and something we will never forget.   A volleyball fundraiser at our high school was also held Saturday that was packed with attendees and players.  It was filled with fun and the crowd was thrilled to see Ryan make an appearance and watch the matches.  This weekend was filled with events that made us realize how blessed we are.  Thank you a million times over to our family, friends, and community.  Our hearts are full!   Welcome home Ry!!!
