Ryan Brandt Obituary

Beloved son and brother, friend of many, lover of animals, left this earth, and the many of us who loved and understood him, on April 15, 2013. He is survived by his parents, Christopher and Jenavie Brandt, and sister Shelly Brandt, of Divide, CO., grandparents Jack and Gweneth Taylor of Pleasant Grove, Utah. In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been established in Ryan's name at Teller County Regional Animal Shelter (TCRAS). For information on Ryan's celebration of life on April 27, call 719-687-7008. Goodbye Ryan, you are sorely missed. We love you.

You were the most realest and supportive homies i have had. You told me to keep my head up, stay strong when i found out i was pregnant because you knew that i love kids but wasnt ready for my own. Well Ryan you were right yet again. You said my baby would change my whole world around and make it better and you were right. Not everything is better but I'm still doing my best. But lest face it sometimes i will always be a slacker. I love you and miss you like crazy Ryan. I considered you as a brother and still do because you called me out on my bullcrap and held my hand through think and thin.
