Oh, my sweet Ryry. My heart feels like it’s been shattered into pieces. You were so much more than just my nephew—you were one of the greatest joys of my life. Becoming your auntie was one of my proudest moments, and I will always treasure the bond we shared.
I remember the first time I met you—it was like my heart knew you immediately, and we were inseparable from that moment on. I’ll never forget those afternoons with you and Uncle Will, shooting up my Pepsi bottles and coat cans until they looked like they had chickenpox. I’d act annoyed, but deep down, I loved every moment of it. Thinking back now, those memories just make me laugh and cry all at once.
I’m so thankful for the times you visited me, no matter where I lived. You always made me feel loved, and every memory we made together feels like a precious treasure I’ll keep with me forever. Losing you, Ryry, has left a hole in my heart that can never be filled.
I’ll miss you more than words could ever express. I love you so deeply, and I take comfort in knowing that you knew how much you meant to me. There are so many stories I could share about you, but even if I spent forever telling them, it would never feel like enough.
Now, as you are laid to rest, I know I’ll never be the same. My life has been forever changed by your absence, but I will carry you with me always. Rest in peace, sweet Ryry. You will always be my beloved nephew.
