Ryan Maguire Turner

1989 - 1997

Ryan's story is not about loss.  It is a testimony that will endure as an affirmation of faith, hope and life.

Ryan has touched so many lives and has the potential to touch many more through his testimony. It truly comforts us to be able to share Ryan’s story with people who never met him, knowing that the love he embodied can live on. God's grace is sufficient, and it has been evident from the very beginning of Ryan's illness through today.  We’ll continue sharing Ryan's testimony for as long as possible.  Our prayer is that through it, you will know God’s everlasting love.

We miss Ryan every day.

We hold fast to the memories, the stories, and the bright light of love he cast when he was alive. Get to know this special boy by reading, watching, and finding inspiration in his life.
