In Memory of Ryan Starnes

Thank you to everyone who is taking the time to read this.

I am Kelly Starnes, the eldest sister of Ryan Starnes, and it is with a very heavy heart I announce that Ryan passed away suddenly and unexpectedly last week. Our entire family is completely shocked and beyond devastated. We never imagined we would have to face this tragedy, so we have no funds in place to pay his expenses. All donated funds will be used to help offset his funerary costs.

Ryan Daniel Starnes was born on April 25th, 1994, to Stephen Edward Starnes and Lani Sikora Kendle. The third born of three children, and fraternal twin to Kimberly Elizabeth Starnes, he was our one and only brother and the baby of the family.

From the beginning, he did not have the easiest life, but he was passionate, exuberant, and developed a strong work ethic which he took great pride in. He made a lasting impact on everyone he met during his 29 years here on Earth. He loved his family dearly and absolutely adored animals, sports, and music. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him, and we pray he is at peace now.

If you are able, the Starnes family would greatly appreciate any monetary contribution to help with expenses. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this GoFundMe to others to help spread the word.

Rest in Peace, Ryan. Your family loves you always. ️
