It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Ryan McIntosh on Thursday, July 14, 2016, at the age of 21 years. He will be lovingly remembered every single day by his parents, Andrew and Laurie McIntosh; sister, Skye; paternal grandparents, John and Maureen McIntosh; extended family and friends. Ryan was completing a 16-month internship at Garmin Ltd. in Cochrane, AB and was excited about a future in computer hardware engineering. He was expecting to graduate next April with an Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Calgary. Ryan was a loving son and a true friend to many. He had a passion for adventure, which extended into hiking, backpacking, bouldering, backcountry and downhill skiing, music, board games and spending time with his dog Tess. Some of Ryan's greatest achievements included carrying the torch for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, and receiving his Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award. His strength, positive spirit and enthusiasm for life will live on in the many lives he touched. A Celebration of Life will be held at St. Stephen's Anglican Church (1121 - 14 Ave SW) on Friday, July 22, 2016 at 10:00 am. If desired, donations may be made in his memory to the Search and Rescue Program for Banff, Yoho & Kootenay National Parks (Mail a cheque payable to the Receiver General, clearly marked for the Visitor Safety Donation Program, to Brian Webster, Banff Visitor Safety Manager, Box 900, 220 Hawk Avenue, Banff, Alberta, T1L 1K2).
