I always loved being around Ryan; he was funny, kind, genuine and loving. Although we may have drifted apart these past few years, I will always remember his easy smile, his big bear hugs, and can still hear his laugh in my memories. I personally enjoyed teasing Ryan about Guinness and how they were soulmates. I loved to see him laugh and roll his eyes whenever I threatened to steal him away. I feel privileged to have known such a gentle soul, and am saddened to see him taken so soon. My condolences to his family and friends ❤️

Dear Marilyn and family I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your son. My heart goes out to you at this very difficult time. Cherish your memories in a way that will always keep him close to you. Dianne (Cameron) Thomson Regina

Ryan O'Harra Thacker was a beautiful man.

With a balanced intelligent mind, his intelligence was always respected among us and it was not uncommon to ask for Ryan's advice. He was a connoisseur of fine music, a wizzard of the computer, and a faithful friend. He was NOT however a dancer ;)

He was my personal gentle giant and he will forever be missed. Ryan and our close group of friends shared a lot of wonderful ups with some downs along the way. Ryan was the best friend someone could ask for and he always supported me with love and understanding. You left us too soon Ryan. You will forever be missed and loved. We will meet again my friend.

My friend Ryan. A sweet guy to the core. Ryan, you live on and all our memories. So lucky to have had all the good times we had with you. Thank you for being such a great freind to Jeffrey and I. I can hardly believe you had to leave us so early. We will be bringing a chair for you for our camping trips as I know you will still be with us in spirit.

My heart is hurting for my family, and friends of Ryan, we may have lost contact over the years, however my memories growing up, all the Christmas’s. The world lost amazing soul. Sending love and strength
