We are saddened to report that Ryan Job has succumbed to complications from recent surgery.
Please pray for Ryan's wife Kelly, Ryan's mother Debi, father Eric, sister Kelsie and brother Daron, Ryan's grandmother and other relatives who are grieving. Moreover, for those who had the privilege to know and work with him on the NAVY SEAL TEAMS and in his life after retiring.
Ryan was a Born Again Christian who loved Jesus Christ and wanted to serve Him for the rest of his life. Ryan now is with his Lord and Master; he has regained his sight and awaits his wife and family who love Jesus to join him for eternity.
Ryan was Camp Patriot's National Spokesman. He was filled with enthusiasm about life even though he had given his sight during the fight against terrorism in Iraq.
Ryan was a decorated and revered Navy SEAL. He was wounded while deployed in Iraq with his SEAL Team in 2006. Ryan suffered total sight loss when a sniper's round hit the butt of his machine gun, sending shrapnel through his right eye severing his olfactory nerve and left optic nerve. Ryan underwent what was to be his final major surgery this past week. Complications that we are not totally aware of took his life after the surgery in Phoenix AZ.
After retiring, Ryan summited Mt Rainier in 2008, bagged a magnificent elk in 2008 and returned to help other injured veterans to climb Mt Rainier in 2009. Ryan gave of himself selflessly both in military service and in private life. He is one of those few individuals you meet in life that is irreplaceable.
God bless you Ryan and thank you for your service to America and Freedom around the world. You will be missed and this world is a lesser place since you went home to be with the Lord. However, we rejoice in your life and your being in the presence of God the Creator forever more. We that remain are anxious for the coming of Jesus Christ that we may again hold you as our brother in Christ.
