Meet Matt Welkie from Woodlyn, PA. Matt is a transplant recipient who received Ryan's pancreas. Alison, Ron, and Cristen had the honor of meeting Matt in April 2006.
On Saturday, November 26, 2005, former and current members of Centenary Youth Group gathered for a ceremony to dedicate a cherry blossom tree purchased in memory of Ryan. The ceremony involved a scripture reading by Laura Klugh, a poem written by Alishaa' Phillips, a prayer written by Katelyn Siegfried, and words of inspiration shared by friends and family. Each person present had the opportunity to participate in the planting by adding a shovel of dirt around the tree.
A number of people in the area have gotten tattoos as a tribute to Ryan. Here are the ones that have been photographed so far.

One of Ryan’s
nick names was White Chocolate. One weekend in August 2004, the feature

another way of God showing us that Ryan continues to be with us in
spirit.

In July 2008, Coach Andy Hartwick, along with some of his AAU basketball players and other supporters, spruced up Ryan's playground at Cottage Hill. This dedicated team painted the building and pavilion, trimmed trees, and put down new mulch in the play area.
On November 8, 2009, Steve Whittle, a 1969 Steel-High graduate, participated in the Harrisburg Marathon wearing #9 in remembrance of Ryan. This was Steve's 9th marathon, having run it in 2003 after prostate cancer surgery and in 2007 after having hip replacement. Thank you, Steve, for your dedication to never giving up.
