Ryan provided amazing music at my father's funeral service and reception afterwards. Ryan is very friendly, a great listener and made the whole experience feel comfortable when we were originally a little nervous and in a difficult place mentally. His performance of My Way, by Frank Sinatra, as my father's casket was lowered, was extremely touching and something I know he would have adored.
“Ryan was amazing. We hired Ryan for a funeral, Ryan communicated with me before hand to make sure he knew exactly what I wanted. He was extremely respectful and professional through out the service and the wake. I’m so happy I chose Ryan.”
