Hi Ryan,
Just learned of your website, so out of the loop...Loving your voice, writing, music....not to mention those Hollywood good looks. But the sweetest part is your spirit, I've looked into those big brown eyes when you were just a little one....."sweet spirit" that's what I saw. I am sure your fans agree! Love you & your beautiful Mom.
Auntie Kim ...(and Jackie)

Hi Ryan,

Thanks to Marv and Karen Raflik for sending me the info about your website. It seems like yesterday when I was featuring the Versa J's CD with your polka hero, Eddie B. I have enjoyed playing all the CD's by the band over the years and still am on Polka Parade here in Milwaukee on the show Melodia Zycia or Pod Nogi for 28 years (www.JOY1340.com at 10 am CST each Saturday) and have been on polka radio for 37 years. I recall playing the albums featuring your dziadza and nominating your wonderful mom for the IPA female vocalist. Wish you lots of luck. Say hello to your mom. Finally, hope to see you on the view tomorrow. One day, I hope you could go to Zakopane, Poland and sit in with the Gorale musicians. I love the music, having been there eleven times. Hope we do see you in the polka field od czasu do czasu or from time to time. Zdrowia zawsze.

Ryan, Congrats on a great web site. We met your lovely Mom on the Studio B tour last year. She saw me get all emotional over Elvis and that started a conversation. We learned about you and your family, all the talent, your Dad's sad passing, your hopes for Nashville music career, etc. I sent Mom a copy of old movie magazine story of my meeting with Elvis when I was 15!!! We are going to CMA Music Fest for the first (and probably only time!!! heat and allergies!!!) next year. We are looking forward to seeing your Mom and maybe you too. Lots of luck to you. You are multi talented. I'm impressed and we both wish you well in all you want to do. God Bless You.

Congratulations Little Ryan on your tremendous success. Who knew that little kid would turn out so professional? You have come a long way and deserve your success, enjoy every minute of it.
Did I miss something in your bio or did you not mention Eddie B and his influence on your music? I remember you singing with him "If I could be like you" and thought he had some influence in the direction your career took. Just wondering. Barb

I always enjoyed your work with Henny's band and now you are heading for well-deserved stardom in the world of country music.
I am sure that you will be headlining your own concert tour in the future. So, best of luck. By the way, Jim Sullivan still wants you to fix him up with a female country singer. Too bad Minnie Pearl is no longer with us.

Hi Ryan,

My husband John and I met your wonderful Mother during our tour at RCA's Studio B in Nashville on June 8. I told your Mom what a huge Elvis fan I am............and a big country music fan too. We had time for a short personal chat and I learned about you and your Dad.........and the move to TN. I felt very drawn to your sweet Mom and I'll be mailing her a copy of a story that was in a movie magazine back in 1960 - telling how my sister and I met Elvis when he was discharged from the Army. It was a huge blizzard and a very sweet story. He was very kind and concerned for us. Your Mom added your website under her mailing address and I just finished reading about you and listening to some music.

I am certainly VERY impressed. You are one talented guy. I will now be checking in regularly to see how you're doing. If you ever come to Philly/South Jersey my husband John and I will be there.
Lots of luck to you, Ryan. I'm so glad your Mom told us about you. she is very proud. John and I liked her immediately and wished we could have spent some quality time getting to know her more.
We wish you good luck in all you do and most especially, good health. God Bless You.

Regards from your new "friends"

What a pleasure to read your web-site. I have not known any performers that have made it big that we could say we have known him since he was born, but it will be a pleasure someday to say that. I know you will do it, but if not you certainly will have a great ride and meet a lot of people. Even without stardom you are a great person and that means more than anything. May God Bless You Always. Please say hello to your Mom. We miss seeing both of you. Take care.
