Ryan C. Peck, 29, passed away suddenly on Tuesday April 21st, 2020.
He is survived by his Mother, Valerie S. (Peck) Donovan; His father, Paul V. Peck (Doreen); his brother Sean P. Peck (Molly); his niece Adeline; and his aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends. Ryan was a very special and spiritual young man. Ryan was a student, studying a career path devoted to helping others overcome the battle of addiction. Although he lost his own battle to the demons of this disease, his love of helping others will live on. Ryan was always the optimist and was able to see the beauty in life and the good in others and had a special way of showing others to do the same. He loved photography, the outdoors, and was an avid reader, always looking for a good book to read. Although, taken away too soon, Ryan would want his life to be celebrated, not mourned. He will forever be deeply missed by all who knew him.
A Memorial Mass will be held Saturday, September 12, 2020, at 10:30 a.m. in St. Louise de Marillac Church. Interment will follow in Forest Lawn Gardens, McMurray, PA. A luncheon will be held in Peterswood Park Pavillion #1 on Meredith Drive in Peters Township. The family has taken necessary covid precautions to make it safe for everyone.
I Am Learning How To Live
by Jamey Wysocki
I am learning how to live
In a new way
Since that day
You were taken away.
I am learning how to live
With the things left unsaid
Knowing I got to say them
With every tear that I shed.
I am learning how to live
By embracing the pain
Knowing that you live on
Through the memories that remain.
I am learning how to live
Knowing I will never again see your face
And I have peace knowing
You’re in a better place.
I am learning how to live
Knowing you’re in God’s care
It gives me the strength to move on
And makes the pain much easier to bear.
