Ben Jonson said it best on the death of his own son “Here doth lie his best piece of poetry” and so here lies our best piece of poetry, Ryan Matthew Swan. We had him for only a brief time on this earth but, in that time, he brought all of us great joy. We shall miss the sweet scent of his skin, the softness of his hair, and the gentle cooing of his voice. Ryan’s mother, Kathryn Swan, will forever be changed by the presence of Ryan in her life and the immense love she felt at being a mother. The Lingenfelter family, the Swan family, and the Worley family will dearly miss their baby boy. May he “rest in soft peace.”
