Ryan was born on October 6th, 2004 in Stillwater, Oklahoma to Tammy Nguyen Keeler and Rick Keeler. He lived in Coyle, Ok, with his Aunt Janice Hopkins and was a student at Coyle Public Schools.

His friends will miss how he was always there for them and made any stressful situation better.
Ryan was always up for a fishing trip and went frequently with his Papa Nguyen over the years. They often brought back catfish, bass, and stripers to cook up at home. His love of outdoors took him all over the family farm in Coyle and out fishing even more with his Aunt Laura.
Other times, Ryan could be found playing video games online with friends, hunting for the next big deer, or spending time with family and friends.
