Ryan Alton Green

Ryan was born April 10, 1989, in Irving, Texas. He was well known in the Valley Ranch neighborhood, where he grew up and went to school. During his school years, he was a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, on the Ranchview High School football, and he played the viola in the orchestra. He also played on a select soccer team with City of Irving Soccer League. Ryan interviewed and got his first job at age 16. It was a summer paid internship as an artist for the City of Irving, where he worked with other teens and an artist from New York to create a large mosaic that is in the entry wall of the Irving Health and Human Services building. There is a plaque with his name listed.

Ryan adorned many places with his art work – at a daycare in Carrollton, almost every wall has murals he painted, as well as storefront windows in Carrollton and Addison. In high school, he designed the orchestra t-shirt.

Ryan could do anything he wanted, to do whether it was painting a mural or taking a computer completely apart and put it back together. He could make music and wire a entire hospital. Ryan’s smile was contagious. He was goofy but definitely serious. If he had something in his mind, he would stick with it.

Both of his girls, Aaliyah Rechee’ Green, age 9, and Pearlie Adriana Lizette (Princess P) Green, age 7, are the spitting image of him, and I can’t say that enough. His three boys, Jaiden Joel Mason Green, age 12, Jordan Jeovanie Ki’Lynn (Baby) Green, age 10, and Ryan Altonio Ja’Colby (Niko/Little Ryan) Green, age 8, have his big dimples and crazy smile. They love their daddy so much.

Ryan is also survived by his mother, Mary Melissa Mack Murray; grandmother, Pearlie Mack; older brother, Christopher Green; younger sisters, Markail Mack and Kimberly Mack; nephews, Major Johnson and Kylen Johnson; and niece, Olivia Carter.

He was predeceased by his grandfather, Obbie Mack.
