It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ryan Eugene Manders, born January 1, 1974, to Johnny H. Manders and Jerrine F. Gray. He is survived by his mother and stepfather, Ron Gray, brothers, Christopher and Damon Manders, and step-brother, Mark Gray. He was a man of deep feeling and goodness of heart, kind and gentle, a fierce friend, and a loving son and brother. A spiritual man, he met his Creator throughout all creation and especially in his love for small animals. More than anything, he loved to work with his hands under open skies. He is at peace now, waiting for us to find him in sky, earth, and water.
Visitation will be from 6-7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26, with a memorial service at 7 at Laughlin Service Funeral Home.
