RIP Ryan August

The man behind “I Want Your Skull” passed away last weekend in a traffic collision.

His wife posted this on IWYS -
On Saturday, July 11th… my husband, Ryan August, and our son Declan were in a car accident on their way home from Atlanta. They were driving through a storm when Ryan’s car left the road and struck a tree. Declan, secured in his car seat, made it through with minor cuts and bruises. Ryan died on impact.

Ryan was a wonderful husband and the most devoted father I have ever seen. I cannot not begin to imagine our lives without him….

I know that he has many friends out there and I wanted to let everyone know what happened. Right now there is so much to deal with that I am struggling to keep it all moving…. but when I can I will set to honoring his commitments involving I Want Your Skull and its related blog. Right now I am focused on our son and trying to understand the unfathomable.

My thoughts go out to his wife Sarah and son Declan.

If you didn’t know, a piece of mine was printed in the latest issue of IWYS. I am proud to have been a part of it and have thanked Ryan on a few occasions for the opportunity. Hopefully his project will be carried on in his memory.
