Ryan Stuart Griffith passed from this life on
October 4, 2007 in Seoul, South Korea. He was born
in Corsicana, Texas, on June 6, 1983 and spent his
childhood in Arlington, Texas. Ryan graduated from
Columbia Christian High School in Portland, Oregon
in 2001 and then attended Cascade College, where he
graduated with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies in
2006. Ryan was an active member at the Metro Church
of Christ in Gresham, OR. He helped teach classes on
Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights. He had a
mischievous sense of humor and a knack for mimicking
lines from movies. Ryan liked to spend time with his
family and play card games. He could beat almost
anybody at the card game 14. Ryan had recently
moved to South Korea to teach English to elementary
aged students at a private school and when he passed,
he was doing what he loved. He treasured his time
there with friends.

Ryan was many things to different people: son, brother,
uncle, nephew, cousin, friend, teacher, and most
importantly, Christian. Although we are saddened by
his passing, we rejoice in the fact that Ryan is with his
Heavenly Father.
