    May he rest in peace, and all the positive thoughts with his family and friends, as well as everyone at the office.

    Taken from everyone far too soon.

    Condolences to everyone at Giant Bomb. For years now it has been a pleasure and a joy listening to you all, since the days at Gamespot, for hours each and every week. Thank you Ryan for that. Never knew you personally, but will miss you.

    Holy shit! With Ryan's death, he takes with him the love that so many [spoken and spoken] had for him. Rest in peace, Ryan. We will all most assuredly miss your jovial laugh and taunts. The undisputed king of the Summer Jam, gone far FAR too soon.

    This is insane. What a terrible loss.

    I'll miss you, Ryan. You were such a prominent and entertaining figure in this industry, wise beyond your years. I don't doubt we'll be seeing hundreds more odes like this from industry vets the 'net over.

    Jesus, right after his wedding too. Life can be so brutal.

    Thank you Ryan for everything. I never knew you and now I never will. I do feel like I talked to you every week for years but that was just you talking to us, your fans. You will be missed and my meager words mean nothing and will only serve to allow me to fathom that this is real. Thanks for being the voice in my head the gamer and the big kid in all of us.

    I'm literally crying right now. Rest in peace Ryan. Thank you for all the laughs, the wise words and the good timesI've had from listening to and watching you. When I listen to a Bombcast or watch a Quick Look, I never feel like I'm just absorbing content, I feel like I'm hanging out with friends. And this feels like losing a friend.
