• Where to begin...every trip to Winnipeg always included checking in with auntie Irene and uncle Ryan. Always witty and resourceful, loved making martinis, birding, watching sports and music! I recall a time when Leah and I came to Wpg and met Porteouses at the arena for an AC/DC tailgate party. We literally partied outside the concert listening to rock and roll, Ryan with his mickey in his pocket. What a guy. Great, great times!! I think back to the fun Halloween parties, pool parties, and then there was Cozumel. We laughed so hard, made such great memories rooming with those two. He made every event fun, memorably outrageous. Like the time I drove to a celebration of life and enroute hit a round about leaving the city, I did take it pretty fast and said "hold on" but to everyone that day, I almost killed them said uncle Ernest...will miss you like crazy love Cathy - Posted by: Cathy richards (Neice) on: Sep 17, 2024

• My Uncle Ryan, was a cool guy. He loved music, played guitar in a band. He always had a great laugh, and enjoyed telling us stories. He travelled world wide, Australia, African Safari, Mexico, St Kitts, and probably many more places. I started bird watching, only because Ryan and Irene, would go every year for the annual bird counts. Thanks for the memories, I'll see you on the other side. - Posted by: Marvin Tanasychuk (Nephew) on: Sep 03, 2024

• Aunty Irene, Susan, Penny, Karen and families... I was so saddened to hear of the passing of Uncle Ryan. I would like to offer my condolences to you all. I have fond memories of coming for visits to your place when we were younger and gathering at Aunty's Mary's in Sarto!! Uncle Ryan always had a smile, a Hello and how are you doing! Always know that you will have the memories in your heart to keep forever. It is very hard to have a loving husband, dad, and grandfather leave our lives, but you will always have a moment when you will believe that he is near when you need him most. Take care of one another. Our prayers are with you. Merv and Brenda and family - Posted by: Brenda and Merv Mihaychuk and family (Niece) on: Aug 26, 2024

• Irene and family, so sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you; Love my memories of the fun times the four of us shared, especially the Martini Nights, RYAN made a mean one, I doubt I will ever have another like it.💚 - Posted by: Jean Richards (Sister in law) on: Aug 26, 2024

• Dear Irene and family. All the cousins that lived on Winchester Street send our thoughts and prayers to the family of Ryan. Ryan had made a stop many years ago in Stony Mountain to visit us after being at Oak Hammock Marsh observing the birds. Karen and Don Kelpin - Posted by: Karen Kelpin (Cousin) on: Aug 25, 2024
