Ryan started his career in security at the age of 13 at Olympia Skating Rink in Macon and proceeded to work in numerous bars in the Macon area as a Bouncer before becoming a mandated deputy sheriff and serving with the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office for several years. 

He loved traveling on his motorcycle taking short and long trips with family and friends. He was an avid softball player and played for numerous teams in the Macon area. He loved to fish, mostly with just a cane pole at his Uncle Gerald’s Pond. He loved hanging out with his friends and watching sporting events. He was a Georgia Bulldogs, Atlanta Braves and Atlanta Falcons fan. He enjoyed playing along with the show Jeopardy and beat us more times than we like to admit. He had a quick wit and an easy smile. He was a force to be reckoned with and very protective of family and friends.
