"Finally Well"

Our sweet little boy, Ryan Earl Deppe, age 2 1/2, returned to his Heavenly Father on Wednesday, December 8, 2004. After a valiant battle against cancer, he passed peacefully at home surrounded by those who love him.

Ryan was born July 3, 2002. He was blessed with three older brothers: Steven (9), Michael (6), and Jason (4), whom he dearly loved. Ryan was a precious gift to us - one that we will treasure forever. He brought a sweetness into the world that touched so many lives. He had such a strong will to live and he was happy. He loved to hear the birds sing and to go for rides in the car. His favorite things were balloons and bubbles and being with his family. He was incredibly strong in both body and spirit.

We now use his strength to carry on until we meet again. We will miss him!
