Hi, my name is Kim, and mine and many hearts are broken with the loss my cousin, Ryan Gardner.

Ryan was in a fatal accident early Tuesday morning just after 12am. He sadly leaves behind his beautiful daughter, Aurora, his parents, his best friends, loved ones and our family. We are devastated with his passing!

Together we are planning a Celebration of Life service for Ryan. We are doing it the way we know he would want it with a Paddle Out at Cannon Beach next Sunday, July 11th at 6:30pm. We would love for as many of you to be there as possible to celebrate the vibrant and crazy beautiful life he lived.

Ryan had so much more life to live! He is gone far to early. He was however able to save multiple people because he opted to be an organ donor. A truly beautiful final gift he gave to those who needed it most. ❤

I have set up this Go Fund Me account to help with Ryan’s cremation and his service. We are hopeful of having a memorial set up at one of his favorite surf spots as well. All additional funds will be set aside and given to Aurora.
