As per Ryan's wishes no formal Service will take place,
Ryan Gerbrandt, dearly and truly loved by his family; Ethne, Levi, Cohen and Charity Gerbrandt, Bonnie & Eldon Gerbrandt, Shawna & Jeremy, Avery, Rory Lumgair, Tara & Andrew, Leah, Mason, Owen Braun and Cameron & Jillian Gerbrandt. Deeply missed by his friends, co-workers and fellow explorers.
Ryan was a true adventurer, a soul who thrived in the calm of nature. Every hike, every birdwatching trip became an engaging story waiting to be shared with friends, family, and fellow explorers he met along his journey.
What set Ryan apart was his remarkable ability to truly see people and the world in ways that many of us often overlooked. He had a gift for noticing the beauty in the little things—a snowy owl perched atop a hydro pole, a red tailed hawk floating above the trees or a white tailed deer sitting still in the grass. He reminded us that adventure was not just about the places we went but the moments we cherished along the way.
We will deeply miss Ryan’s quiet kindness and his soft, loving ways. His presence brought a sense of calm and joy that radiated warmth and comfort to everyone around him. He will forever live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know and love him.
