The
Story


Ryan Bennett was the kind of guy who lit up a room. He always
made you feel special and you couldn’t help but adore him.
Ryan was funny without being mean, he was caring, loving and was
crazy about sports… especially mixed martial arts,
the Patriots, and, of course, The Red Sox.

If you spent more than five minutes talking with Ryan, you knew
how important his family was to him. He was always more than
willing to show you the latest family video, pictures, or fill
you in on the funny family stories of the day.

Seeing Ryan with his family was amazing. When his wife or kids
were around, Ryan’s smile was bigger than ever. His four
beautiful children and wife, Tonya, meant everything to him. Ryan
had just reached a point in his life where he was truly happy.
His family had a beautiful home in Salt Lake City that they had
just moved into and Ryan was starting his dream job.

On May 31, 2006, Ryan and his entire family were in a car
accident in Fillmore, Utah. Ryan was killed, Tonya seriously
injured. Two of Ryan’s four children were injured as well.
Tonya, Ashley, Allison, Jada and Braden will all recover from
their injuries, but moving on and living life without Ryan will
be a different story.
Now some of the people that were lucky enough to have Ryan
Bennett in their lives are trying to give something back to a man
who gave so much, to so many. We are trying to help take care of
Ryan’s family. This is the least any of us can do for them.
Ryan can’t do it, but we can.
Thank you for visiting our website and for
helping to support the Bennetts. They thank you, and we thank
you.
