Ryan Edrick Brown was born on March 2, 2004; to Nicole Tawon Cooper and Eddie Kendrick Brown; in Jackson Mississippi.

Ryan is Nicole's 4th and last child. Nicole and her children moved to Colorado when Ryan was just a baby. When Ryan was a small child, you would always see him carrying his Bible to church(my sister would call him the little preacher man). Ryan loved playing basketball and he was an excellent basketball players . Ryan played basketball, up until he had to have a couple of major surgeries. Ryan also loved to play video games all day and night. He was extremely talented with computers. Ryan was an introvert young man; but was excellent with words. He was very polite, helpful and protective of his mother, his sister, and the other females in his family. Ryan was strong minded & he definitely spoke what was on his mind.

Ryan had a smile that would brighten any room he walked into. And the sound of his laughter was/and will forever be absolutely unforgettable. You didn't even have to know what was funny, but you would just begin to laugh, because of the sound of Ryan's laugh!

Ryan and his siblings loved taking care of their mom in every way. Ryan loved his siblings; sister Mikel, brothers Micah & Robert Jr, his ex-girlfriend Shawtae, and one of his favorite cousins BigTim.

In Ryan's younger years; you could definitely find him on the bus with his Uncle Tony riding all over Colorado. Ryan was close with his bonus-dad Jerome.

Ryan always looked forward to spending time with his older male cousins. And he would reach out to them for guidance and advice.

Ryan was so happy to be an Uncle to his three little nieces Khylar, Kyndall, and Kree.
