To the Monroe family, I extend to you my sincerest condolences. I had the privilege of working with Ryan at Triton for two years; he was also my child's teacher. I couldn't have asked for a more humble co-worker, one that was always willing to lend a hand where ever needed. I hate that his life had to end so prematurely, but may he rest with the Father in Heaven. The humbleness he displayed and the honor he gave to God will be remembered on the day of Jesus's return. I encourage you to look to the hill from which cometh your help, knowing that all of your help cometh from the Lord. Rest, Mr. Monroe; your labor is done down here on earth.

Humbly,

Mrs. Katia WhiteheadΒ
