On July 15th, 2012, a great young man was taken from us far too early. Ryan Crews Mumm was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend to many. While we are deeply saddened that his time here was unexpectedly and unjustly cut short, we feel fortunate to find brief moments of peace when remembering his boundless energy, bright smile, and gentle kindness.
Our family would be forever grateful if you took a moment to share a story or memory of Ryan.
You can also help to preserve his memory and ease the financial burden on our family by making a donation to the Ryan Mumm Memorial Fund. Please take a moment and click here to donate now.

Sadly, I did not know Ryan, however, I went to school with his mother, Kim, who talked fondly of him quite often. If Ryan was anything like his mother is, I have no doubt that he was a very strong, bright young man with a lot of potential. Kim and family: I am so very sorry for your loss. No words can bring Ryan back or ease your pain. You are in my prayers.

I never had the privilege of knowing Ryan on a deeply personal level, however I did know him through his sisters and saw him on multiple occasions when visiting "Casa De Nana". Ryan always had the best smile, a twinkle in his eyes, and was always gracious with welcoming me. His sisters and mom have always spoken so fondly of him, you could and still can tell they love him so much.

Here is what made Ryan so special:
Ryan was an organ donor. A selfless act but one that must be chosen. Ryan was young and healthy. His selfless donation helped many people struggling to survive to a second chance at life and to live normally again. Ryan will forever live in the individuals he helped and they will be forever grateful. Thank You for a true gift.

Another great memory was when you, my sister and i were up snowboarding and i was being a brat to my sister. You came to me and said "on the count of three lets get her." of course i wanted to so when three came i threw a snowball at my sister and you white washed me lol. I got over it, and i appreciate that you stuck up for her like that. We used to say we were brothers. Im gonna miss you

Ryan, you were a good friend to me. Every time i saw you we would talk and catch up, and you would always make sure i was staying out of trouble. I remember knocking you out when we collided on a snowboard, and before i could take your goggles off your eyes opened wide with a " what the hell are you doing look", One day at the lunch table a kid tried stealing my seat and you told him off.

Ryan was always shy around us, but I will forever remember his proud smile walking his beautiful sister up the aisle at her wedding to our son. Safe now from all harm.

Ryan, my favorite memory of you is from our little sixth month anniversary in 8th grade. I gave you a rose in each of your classes, one for every month, and each one you shoved into your back pack because you were so embarrassed. The continuous smile on your face that day proves my money was well spent. I always loved making you smile because you made me so happy. I was a lucky girl. <3

I have SO many memories, and stories with Ryan. He was always so good at lifting you up when you needed it. I cant tell you how many times Ive stayed up till 3am, 4am, all night talking about absolutely everything. Just being there for eachother. He was my comfort & no one will replace him. No one will make me feel how Ryans made me feel or care like he always did. Im thankful I met him<3

Ryan was so amazing. Seeing his smile would always brighten my day. I will miss him so much... But I have the best memories with him. Watching fireworks on Taylor's roof.. Walking to my house just because Taylor didn't have milk for his cereal that he HAD to have :) And so many more. The summer I spent with him everyday was one of the best summers ever. I love you Ryan. Always in my heart.

Mister Ryan Mumm, what a great energy you were to have around. I haven't seen you in about a year, and now I miss you. Will never forget getting my first speeding ticket with you and how scared I was. Taking me in your Audi and doing donuts and freaking me the hell out is about the last memory I have with you, but your always in my heart.

A few days ago I lost my best friend, my life will never be the same. I will not let Ryan's death go to waste. I am going tomorrow to start changing my life. I make an everlasting vow to live out the things Ryan and I always had planned on doing together. While I am doing these things he will always be there with me.
I haven't stopped talking to him to this point. He played such a large part in my life and anyone who came in contact with the young man. He was such a special and unique individual and will continue to touch the hearts of the people who know him, he will never be forgotten. A mother lost her beautiful son, his sisters lost there brother who was like no other person I have ever met he was so special words can't describe him and my best friend will never come back to us on this earth but we will meet him again. I hope this sends a message to everyone that life is to short and you never know when it can be taken from you. Don't let guilt and insecurities consume you.
I will be busy recovering my life from the drugs that consumed it. I will be becoming everything Ryan and I should have been. The potential we have is limitless and since he is not here I plan to show everyone that there are no limits in life.
Satan took hold of our lives and consumed us with evil and took his life because of the action and choices that we chose, but I am in the palm of Gods hand and he will guide me! Ryan is off with our father and his white horse as one of Gods Warriors now. R.I.P Ryan Crews Mumm. You will never be forgotten I love you brotha! You will always be with me and I can't wait to show you what we were sent here to do!!
