    Ryan's Core Principles

    I was speaking with Ryan Hawks dad at the Meatheads Movie Premier at UVM a few weeks ago and picked up a card off the table that listed his son's core principles. While they have been posted before, and Ryan has friends on the board and I never met him, I am moved to post these. Snow's flying, have a good year.

    Flyin' Ryan's Core Principles
    Live everyday, all day
    Never stop exploring life
    Never lose my adventuresome attitude
    Be the best friend I can be
    Be the best brother, son, uncle I can
    Look out for others
    Look out for myself
    Look out for our surroundings
    Play like I'm 13
    Be self-sufficient
    Dont be afraid to ask for help
    Work hard
    Live easy
    Live simply

    Thanks for the re-post MMP.

    The foundation is indeed doing some great stuff and per my conversation with Peter a week or so ago there is much more in the works.

    I need to print that and put it in my wallet. Having known Ryan, albeit briefly, he always went out of his way to see how life was going whenever we bumped into each other. Such a positive person, and FRF is doing great things for sure.Great dude for sure.
    RIP Ryan, send some white stuff our way.
