i know the colvins.Ryans mom is my spanish teacher.I know what the true story is so all those people out there need to stop making up all these stories.its just making things worse for the two families.

Como se what?

I personally did not know either Ryan or Rob, but I'm am good friends with someone who did. My prayers go out to both their families. And I just hope that all of you people that are leaving terrible comments realize that something terrible happend, and you really aren't helping anyone by saying that. It's a shame that in such a terrible time people could still be so hurtful. I also happen to live in Kings Park and have my entire life and I know that down at the bluff the road does end, with almost no warning. And if it was dark out and it was foggy, which it happens to be alot, then there is no warning. You would not see the sign if the lights weren't on. It was a terrible thing that happened to these two. RIP Ryan and Rob, you will never be forgotten.

I was one of his students. He was my Ela teacher classes are very boring now because he's not there. I am still sucpicous about his friend they really need to find his body. The day I learned he died was the day the school spirit died. Ela will never be the same without you Mr.Colvin we need you back. I remember those days when he used to joke around with the class and say silly jokes about some classmates(none taken seriously). The first question I sad was why him he didn't deserve to die so soon. But like the son "only the good die young". Mr. Colvin was really good. Im really going to miss seeing him in the mornings he was the first teacher to come to school everyday no matter what the weather was or the traffic he was there. Im going to miss him coming around the classroom checking everybody's homework. Im going to miss alot of stuff about him. I wish he was still here.Ever since the day he died he was always in my dreams sometimes I think he is trying to tell me something but doesn't have the words to say it. Now I must come to the end and say "I will always pray for his family and his friends".RCA will always miss you Mr.Colvin.

Ryan Colvin was my first friend when I was about 4 years old we met. We remained very close for about 8 years after then I moved to my fathers house and we lost touch. Our families are very close and this tragedy has had a profound effect on all of us even my self. I recieved a phone call on March 16th from my sister about his death. That same day I got on a plane and flew home. Ryan may not have been my friend any longer but all my childhood memories have him imprinted in them and he will always be remembered and loved by me. May he Rest In Piece eternally.

I am still not over it and I doubt I will ever be. Rob was my dude, me term of endearment for him was "the bass", never had I heard such a voice, never had I laughed so hard, and never had I felt my heart so heavy at losing someone. I miss you. I never got to tell you I loved you, but I have a sneaky suspicion that you already knew.

today is aug.14th,0h8 tommorwo will be the 6 month since he is gone . i still cant believe it but he is in gods hands now. he was ma fave teacher at rca . gone but neva forgoten.peace

i miss you mr.colvin.

There isn't a day I don't get reminded of this.

It's terrible. The first funeral I ever went to, was his.

His face lying there so peacefully, will forever be ingrained into my mind.

I miss you Ryan. <3

Hope you're teaching kids up there, just like you wanted to do down here. <3

he was a teacher at my school his spirit is still there!!

I know its almost 4 years since it happened Mr.Colvin is still truly missed by everyone! He would be sooo happy right now knowing the Giants won the Superball because he was a huge fan.
