Dearest Jeanne and Andrea,
No greater thing was ever done than to put down your life as Ryan did for the betterment of all people and to help educate the world.
The disease of Aids will some day. God willing be conquered. I have lessor hope for the disease of ignorance that is prevelant among so many.

ageing still were less wise than Ryan at eighteen. Small minds have borders. Your son Ryan had a good mind and a good heart. His life had no borders. He will wing his way to heaven and he won't need a road map because he already knows the way.
Perhaps Ryan was too gentle to live among wolves. Remember this song from the past? - ♫ and I could have told you Ryan/(Vincent), this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you. ♫

I would like to thank you for helping your son attain his goal. That is also very unselfish.

Best wishes for all things good for the rest of your lives.
