He was born on December 11, 1992, to Kristina Sears Allen and Robert L. Nass, in Brattleboro VT. Ryan graduated from Monadnock Regional High School in Swanzey, in 2011, and attended Marshall University in Huntington, WV.
Ryan recently worked at C&S wholesalers in Keene but spent much of his adult life working at Service Credit Union as an Assistant Branch Manager.
Ryan was an incredible man, with a heart of gold. He would do anything he could to help you whether you were a long-time friend or a stranger on the street. He was kind and loving and cared so much for everyone around him. He was the rock many around him relied on as a safe harbor during difficult times. Ryan was a gentle giant, who always gave the most incredible hugs. His sense of humor was unmatched, and he had a way of making you laugh in any situation. Ryan also enjoyed being in the outdoors with his PopPop hunting or snowmobiling or spending time inside painting with his grandpa Sears. Ryan was a ‘foodie’ who enjoyed trying all the hole-in-the-wall local hot spots every time he travelled, from burger joints to local diners to Thai food.
Ryan is survived by his mother, Kristina Sears Allen, of Claremont, NH as well as his father, Robert Nass and second mother, Karen Nass, of Swanzey. He is also survived by his brother, Wyatt Morris of Swanzey; sister, Elizabeth Morris of Chesnee, SC; grandmother, Alice Sears of Westminster, VT; along with several loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Ryan is predeceased, by his grandmother, Roberta Nass, of Flemington, NJ and his grandfather, Alan Nass (PopPop) of Swanzey; as well as his grandfather, Jim Sears, of Westminster, VT.
A private service for his family will be held in Vermont. A celebration of life will be held in November in Swanzey, at a date and time to be announced, where all his friends and family are welcome to attend.
