"Adopted"

I call Ryan as my adapted son.

We met at our hiring event in 2014. Standing at one corner, he's quiet by himself, I approached him and we started talking.  Since then we became friends. We studied and hang out together during our training days.  He stayed with me for a short time in New York when we started flying.  We've shared secrets and sentiments.  We've worked together and traveled to couple of places. He took me to my first lighthouse in Georgia - Tybee Lighthouse, and to his family in Wisconsin on Thanksgiving weekend in 2014. He drove me to my first sunflower plantation. We have many wonderful memories.

He's a sweet boy, caring, and loving.  We started together, and no matter where he goes in the near future, I will forever call him my adopted son.
