Ryan Ray Lawfer

Ryan Ray Lawfer, 20, of Sapulpa, passed away on July 4, 2026. He was born on March 21, 2006, in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Ryan embraced life with a fearless heart and a love for adventure. Whether he was riding his motorcycle, skating with friends, or spending a quiet day trout fishing at Roaring River, he found joy in the simple moments that made life worth living. He never met a stranger and had a gift for making friends wherever he went. His easy smile, kind heart, and fun-loving spirit left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know him.

Although Ryan had recently begun building a future for himself by studying HVAC at Central Tech in Sapulpa, it was the love he shared with his family and friends that truly defined his life. He was deeply loved as a son, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend, and his absence leaves an unimaginable emptiness in the hearts of those who knew him. His life was far too short, but the memories he created and the love he gave will never be forgotten.

Ryan is survived by his parents, Matthew and Christina (Holley) Lawfer; his grandparents, Cole & Susie Holley and Charlene Lawfer; his uncle, Anthony Holley; his cousin, Alexis Bennett-Holley; along with many cousins, extended family members, and countless friends who will forever cherish the time they shared with him.
