We have all experienced the death of someone important to us. This is a place we can preserve our memories of these significant people.
Earlier in the week, a reader had an idea to create a page on the site where people can honor special people in their lives who passed away. Following the suggestion, and a spirited discussion on Facebook about doing so, Orland Park Patch now has its own memorial page. Please share pictures, memories and thoughts about your loved ones who are no longer with us. Sign up for our daily email newsletter. Like us on Facebook.
The 15-year-old Sandburg freshman baseball player, who took his life on Sunday, was mourned on the ball field and by his friends through social media.
Ryan Nash, a Carl Sandburg High School freshman who committed suicide Sunday, was remembered this week in several ways. The night of his death, over 1,500 people added the Twitter hashtag #RN20 to their tweets, to spread awareness of teen suicide. Friends of Nash, and complete strangers moved by the effort, asked Oprah, Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber among many other largely-followed tweeters to post the tag.

Classmates wore black to Sandburg High on Monday after learning of the freshman's death but pledged to wear white Tuesday to honor the teen as they find ways to cope.
Ryan Nash could make “anyone’s frown turn upside down.” The 15-year-old freshman at Carl Sandburg High School was described by a longtime classmate as having a knack for lightening the mood of those around him. “Ryan was a great kid, always had a smile on his face, knew how to cheer people up,” said Tony Gizzi, a classmate for about eight years. “He was the one kid who would never talk behind someone’s back. He was just a joyful person. He loved hanging out with friends, one of the most social kids I knew. Nobody could talk bad about Ryan.” Ryan Nash took his own life Sunday afternoon. The coroner has ruled his death a suicide. On Monday, Sandburg students paid tribute to Ryan Nash by wearing black. For Tuesday’s school day, they pledged …
