On November 8th, 2017 Members of the FNGLA Palm Beach chapter placed a commemorative plaque and planted a beautiful Royal Poinciana tree at the Big Dog Rescue facility in Loxahatchee grove in honor of Elyse Ryan, who passed away July 23rd. 
Chapter President Colin Friedrich recalled some memorable moments of Elyse's rich life in front of a group of family, friends and fellow chapter members.

John and Elise Ryan had been married for more than 50 years, and they have three children and eight grandchildren.  The Ryan's moved to Loxahatchee Groves in 1998.  In addition to remodeling their home, they converted the citrus grove portion of their property into a wholesale nursery,  Color Garden Farms, until 2013, when a larger company assumed and expanded the business.

What a wonderful way to keep Elyse Ryan in our hearts and on our minds! She was a extraordinary woman who touched many lives in many ways.

May the Royal Poinciana with it's bountiful flowers and spreading canopy shade those who sit upon the bench waiting to meet a new furry friend or enjoy the company of a two legged pal.

I think of Elyse often and hope that one day I will be as fondly remembered. We have one great angel watching over all of us.
