Jack Ryan is a brother of Don Ryan, whom you have seen several times on our family website.   Jack's grandfather was James Ryan, the eldest son of James and Nancy Ryan, natives of County Tipperary, Ireland.  His father, John, married in Canada, and eventually he, along with the entire family, made its way to Cushing, Oklahoma.

As we have our daily spiritual conversations, remember to say a prayer for Jack Ryan's family.
