R.I.P. Ryan... Jan. 23, 1978- July 11th, 2004.. You'll always be in my heart and mind... I love you!!! The Lord blessed the world on Jan. 23, '78, with our gentle giant Ryan Tyler Burke. While touching so many hearts on the way or Gentle Giant was taken sadly and tragically on July 11th, 2004 "I want to cry now I really do Im so sad and so blue my Brother passed on It made my family cry he had to go sometime But why now god, why? Now we cant even talk Or hug or even laugh Im okay for now Im gonna miss him so But i told him once ill tell him again I'll love you until the end the love lives on I'll miss you so much Fly to heaven now Ryan Tyler You've got your wings I'll get mine also some day R.I.P Bubby" "Prepared to rest lay still, my Ryan to become of the earth to blend with the rain. Mother Nature's gentle hand had slapped me in the face when I learned that my Brother had traveled to a lonely place. Stars, never seen again by his lovely eyes His lips never touched again despite my bitter cries. Petals sleeping on the ground marks the place my love is found and when the cold wind sobs his name, know my Ryan is cold, but safe . . . And though December's sun is gone, in its place, his love shines on . . ." "You had to go" I miss him so much, my heart aches.. I wish I could have taken his place.. Everyone that knew him, loved him more than life itself. He was understanding, So full of life.. Then his time came.. Now i'm sitting here crying because of fate.. Tear after Tear, Why did it have to be this way?? I would do anything, just to tell him I didn't want him to go.. I love him more than you would ever know.. Now my heart aches because my brother, My Precious Brother, had to go. Sometimes you just have to deal we all knew it was coming, waiting, preparing but we didn't know you can't prepare for these things, they just happen, and when they do its painful, its hard, its depressing when your hero dies, there's not much more you can do but cry and hold onto the memories, turn to your family in this time of need because they need you just as much as you need them use this to grow stronger in courage, in thankfullness and in love, sometimes crying isn't enough, sometimes you just have to deal.. A million words won't bring you back, I know because I've tried, and Neither will a million tears I know b/c I've cried. If the measure of ones worth is in the friends he has Then Ryan was truly a wealthy man.. - Written by our father Roger Burke. "His Smile" His smile was his trademark, wherever he went. A room would brighten when Ryan came in 'cause the first thing you saw, would be his grin! A son and brother so precious; a friend so true! Whatever he had, he'd share it with you! A thought, a deed, a kind word for a while But always, oh always, He'd share 'His Smile'. Our hearts are breaking, our thoughts are going wild! We've lost our friend: We've lost our child! "But only for a while," I heard Jesus say "He's been chosen for the Master's Bouquet!" Hand selected by Jesus from this 'garden of life' Gone to Heaven!-He's through with this strife! Why is he gone? God only knows. But Oh what a treasure, A "smiling rose!" My Heart Broke to pieces that day you went away, Now I look to the sky for a brighter day, You never crossed the line, I know that so, so tell me why did you have to go?? I walk in the door and they tell me to smile. They say I should be happy and all I can do is ask how. How can I be happy when all I can do is think about losing you? Ever since the day u left my heart hasn't stopped bleeding. I cry alone, because without you this house is not a home. My brother was the greatest guy in the world.. There will never be another one like him, he touched everyone's heart while he was on this earth.. He was nothing but a gentle giant. My brothers are my whole world and now half of my world is gone.. It'll never be the same but I know one day we'll be re-united again.. Ryan you were my hero, my gentle giant, Noone will ever take your place in my heart.. I miss you so much not a day goes by that I don't look at your picture and cry.. You were the greatest guy, I've always looked up to you and I always will.. I just hope I can live up to what you wanted me to be. All I hope is that I never dissapoint you.. I miss you horribly ryan and I wish you were still here.. I love you bubby.. Ryan I miss you, and now I don't really have anyone to talk to anymore b/c u were my rock that held me down. Every day as the times go by, I sit there wondering why. Why oh why did he have to go, Go like the winter snow. Then I see his picture, and I cry "My Lost Hero" You came into my life like a burning flame. That was your true ticket to fame. Yet your flame has burned out. It seems as if only I was to pout. Others have found ways to carry on. But in my heart I still hold your song. You were so early to be taken away. It hurt so much I can’t even say. But even though we have parted, you’re still close to me. Yet all my pain others can’t see. I know I should put these feelings in the past. It’s been years now since I’ve seen your face. And my sad feelings move at such a deadly pace. But every time I look up to the stars, I know exactly where you are. You’re in my heart. At least that’s a start. The birds, the bees, the flowers the trees. They all remind me. You watch over me day and night. But I’m forlorn ‘cause you’re always out of sight. I know you hear my prayers. And my burdens you help bear. I never could say a decent good bye. I never will know why. I guess because I still can’t think of you as gone. Maybe that’s how I cope with carrying on. I guess you could say my feet were never on the ground. But the thought of your voice would be a beautiful sound. I still have the rose from your funeral of long ago. Yet when people say you’re gone, I say it isn’t so. My mind if full with thoughts of you. But the memories I have are of a very few. Now comes the time when I must let go. And it pains me so. But I know you’re in a better land. And now I think I understand. That God choose to take you by the hand. And even though that part I can not stand. I know you’re better off in the promise land. "My Brother" He never let me down, He won't let me fall to the ground, He always wants me by his side, I can talk to him day or night, It maybe weird it maybe strange, for us two siblings now to be estranged, I talk to him about everything, I can tell him my hopes, my thoughts, my dreams. I trust him with all my heart and soul, he loves me dearly this I know. I'll never tell him good-bye forever, he'll always be my brother through good and bad weather. I can trust him this I know, and I'll Never let him go. :( "Ryan" I quiver. I shiver. They tell me the news. I wonder why He chose you. I walk the streets remembering you No matter what they say, it’s still the same. Only you could fill the empty void I know you’re okay and feel no pain, But with each passing day I say a prayer asking God to take care of you. We miss you and love you. In our hearts is where you’ll stay, Until we meet again in Heaven someday. "Missing You" Do you look down at me in the night Do you see my candle burning so big and so bright The candle I burn that reminds me of you The candle I hope that you would burn too. Not a day goes by where I don't think of you hoping that you'd come back so the days won't be blue. I feel no one understands me, apart from you. I go to your grave expecting a response to the pointless questions I can't get across. Though sometimes In my mind I forget that you're dead but I'll make sure you keep living in my head I love you so much it makes me so sad that I can't hear you say it back - the one thing that would make me glad. You probably think I'm silly But you'll always be my brother. "HeartAche" When we talked; we talked about everything. When we laughed; we laughed about nothing. When you were here, we were always together. But now your gone and It feels like forever. I won't talk with anyone the way I talked with you. I won't laugh with anyone the way I laughed with you. Nobody understands me the way you did. But I will always be to you, just a kid. Your interest have changed and mine stayed the same. Your mind is all blank and your heart is shattered. If you had only known how much you mattered. The people that hurt you will go on lie. But it is me, the one who loves you that you leave here alone to die alone. "Forever More" It was the shocking news, That brought tears to my eyes. And you made me remember What it was like to cry. On that dreadful day, Your life was taken away, And everyone felt the pain that You had been suffering for so long. It's harder than i ever thought Life could be without you by my side. We will think of you always, And we will always know, That you'll be looking down on us Forever more. "Good-bye" You took chances Once too many times. As a child you thought - "Oh no, never me." Life is a gift, Given and taken at some Unknown time. Your time came too soon - Your life was over in a flash. The fun you shared, The joy you brought, All just a memory - Behind us She ran home Crying in the rain Mournful from the pain Except for the fear Eating at her Until she went insane Caring people at her side Hiding her fear With every year she felt better Having overcome her fear No more screaming Just soft pantings in her head In losing someone, she lost it all Not knowing the sad little noises she makes Going on the hope that's left Someone must tell her R.I.P. Bubby When tomorrow starts without me, & i'm not there to see Your eyes full of tears, showing your love for me I wish you wouldn't cry so much, the way you did that day Thinking of the many things we didn't get to say I know how much you love me, as much as I love you And each time you think of me, I'm thinking of you too So when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand An angel came & called my name, & took me by my hand It was time for me to take my place, in heaven far above Leaving everyone behind, especially the ones I love As I turned & walked away, a tear fell from my eye Remembering the life I lived & why I had to die I do not want to go, with having so much to do And it seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think that we're apart For everytime you think of me, just look within your heart Rest In Peace Ryan Good OLE' Boy He was a good ole' boy with big stong arms and a heart of gold He was strong and good and everything you wanted a man to be He was my bestfriend, just like a brother He was everything to me I loved you more than I realized It's so sad that I never got to say goodbye I always will regret that I never got to talk to you one last time You meant everything to me You were a good ole' boy When I think back on the times we had all I can do is smile You made me laugh; You made me cry You made me realize there are still guys like you around I never thought the day would come that I would be without you I loved you more than I realized It's so sad that I never got to say goodbye I always will regret that I never got to talk to you one last time You meant everything to me You were a good ole' boy There are times when I get so mad at you You always said that you would go young Why did you have to be right What I wouldn't give to have you with me now I loved you more than I realized It's so sad that I never got to say goodbye I always will regret that I never got to talk to you one last time You meant everything to me You were a good ole' boy I loved you, I loved you, I still love you Ryan Written By: Cammi Sergant. Very special friend of ryan. "Go Rest High On That Mountain" I know your life on earth was troubled And only you could know the pain You weren't afraid to face the devil Were no stranger to the rain Go rest high on that mountain Son you work on earth is done Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Oh, how we cried the day you left us Gathered round your grave to grieve Wish I could see the angels' faces When they hear your sweet voice sing Go rest high on that mountain Son, your work on earth is done Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son. Go to heaven a-shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son.
