    I've just been informed that Ryan Goff (Ryankjb) passed away on Wednesday due to complications from cancer treatments. Ryan was a regular at local C&C events and just an all around wonderful person to be around. Many of you may recall his thread last year regarding his fight with stage 4 colon cancer.

    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=252667

    Over the last year I got to know Ryan very well both personally and professionally. He was a young man of of exemplary kindness and empathy and had a great sense of humor. We shared many great drives together all over Pennsylvania.

    I am deeply saddened by his passing. His viewing is on Monday at 1:00 at Ashcraft's located on 740 S. Broadway in Pennsville, New Jersey.

    It would be wonderful if as many of us as possible could show our support to his family at this very difficult time.

    If anyone could post a pic of Ryan on here it would be greatly appreciated. I've only went to a few of the C&C's in the past at Dilworth, but I'm struggling to remember what Ryan looked like, though I've spoken to him in the past on here and just can't remember the face. I apologize for my lack of memory and appreciate anyone's post. Thanks...RIP Ryan

    Horrible news- he was a great guy and warmed my heart on how excited he was to become a Ferrari owner some day... He and I talked about that several times and he was saving with a real purpose. He was always so sincerely pleased with all of our cars, and our trip back from Brace Bridge was a fun time because even with his GPS we kept getting lost.

    I wasn't even aware he had been ill before- he carried himself so surely and calmly that I was always impressed at his maturity and confidence. I didn't realize he had staired his own mortality down.

    I'm truly saddenned.

    Ryan was a good man. We shared some rides through the countryside together and I know others shared their auto sport passion with him as well. If there is a lesson to be learned for us here its that not everyone for various reasons will have the opportunity to experience the thrill of the ownership of one of these fine cars. They however do have the passion just like you. Share a ride. Share a story. Embrace the passion. Ride on Ryan........
