David Ryan Edwards, born on November 14, 1975 in Chesapeake, VA left this world on March 1, 2022 in Kitty Hawk, NC. He had many adventures throughout his life. Even from day one, David let the nurses know he was a charmer as he posed for his first picture grinning with his arm raised and his fist pumping to announce his arrival. He went by many different names: David Ryan, Ryan, RyRy, Dre, Son, Friend, Brother, Grandpa and his favorite of all- Asshole. Though he may have been a little rough around the edges sometimes, Ryan truly had a heart of gold and a light within that he would occasionally let shine for the world to see. He was always trying to help people when he could even when he didn't have much to give. Ryan never met a stranger (especially if they had a fishing pole) and was always ready to lend a hand reeling in that big one on the pier or beach.
Ryan loved the water and outdoors activities including camping, hunting, and cooking. He also loved wood working, shopping, and traveling although his absolute passion was fishing. Born in Virginia but raised in Manns Harbor, Ryan lived most of his life here in the Outer Banks. He shared his love of cooking with many people whether he was working in local restaurants or making a meal to share with his friends and neighbors.
Ryan had many, different jobs throughout the years. They all came with many fun stories and adventures which he always enjoyed sharing with a good laugh. In the last chapter of his life, Ryan fought hard through the pain and discomfort that comes with cancer and was still trying to make people laugh and help them in any way he could.
David Ryan will be welcomed into his afterlife by his loving mother, Judi Blazer Pownell; his step-father, Jay Pownell; his brother, Terry; his grandparents; many old friends; and numerous other relatives that have gone on before him.
