RYAN, Kevin A. - passed away suddenly at St. John`s on April 13, 2001, aged 50 years, Kevin Anthony Ryan formerly of St. Brendan`s and Fermeuse. Predeceased by his parents Josephine and Gregory Ryan and grandparents-in-law Nan and Pop Smith and Nan Kelland. Leaving to mourn: his loving wife and best friend Shirley (nee Kelland), precious children Gregory, Erin, and Sara whom he cherished dearly. Also brothers Tom (Jomie), Dennis (Judy) and Ron; sister Elizabeth (Bess) Hollett. Also, parents-in-law Peter and Sarah Kelland (Gander), brother-in-law Ted Kelland (Carol), sisters-in-law Dianne (John) Warren, and Peggy (Wayne) Holley, and many nieces and nephews. Kevin will be missed by his many friends and relatives. Kevin was a first a loving family man and was a devoted and beloved teacher at Virginia Park Elementary. He touched his students` lives and was deeply touched by the passing of three of his special students - R.J. Puddicombe, Robbie Hryviw, and Stephanie Greeley. Kevin was a caring nurse and advocate for his children at the Janeway. Beyond the classroom and the hospital, he made time to guide children as a scout leader, a school counsellor, a soccer and basketball coach. For himself, Kevin found time for floor hockey, bicycling, and running. Special thanks to Irene Barry, Susan Doyle, and David Molyneux, who shared his last good run. He`ll finish his marathon in heaven. Kevin is resting at Caul`s Funeral Home on LeMarchant Road. Visitation hours are from 7-10 p.m. Saturday evening; 2-4 and 7-10 p.m. Sunday and Monday. Funeral services will take place at St. Mark`s Anglican Church at 11 a.m. Tuesday. Interment at the Anglican cemetery, Kenmount Road. Donations may be made in Kevin`s memory to Virginia Park Elementary School or to the Janeway Children`s Hospital Psychiatric Unit. There`s an end to the summer, to the winter and spring. There`s an end to all wishes, all hopes and all dreams. There`s an end to all laughter and tears so blind. But our love for you Kevin will last - for all time.
