Todd William Ryan
Todd William Ryan, 55, a resident of Cape Coral, FL, passed away Thursday, April 28, 2022. He was born March 30, 1967 in Butte, Montana, youngest of eight children.
He found his paradise in Florida as well as his love John D. Pope.

In addition to his career, his vocation was taking care of those he loved and providing them with whatever support he felt was needed. He was a world traveler and was a huge supporter of the performing arts. He was a master storyteller and could weave a story to entertain with his wit and humor. His laughter was infectious. There were instances that could only happen to Todd and his retelling of those events provided those lucky enough to hear them with hours of entertainment, whether hearing the story for the first time or the tenth time.
He is survived by a multitude of people and his cats Liam and Linus.
He is preceded in death by his husband John.
