Remembering Ryan Windyka

Ryan was the longtime Membership Director at our Scantic Valley YMCA in Wilbraham, where his warmth, humor, and dedication touched countless lives. He greeted every member by name and had a loyal fan club in the early education classrooms across the street, who would joyfully shout “Hi Ryan!” whenever they visited.

Ryan embodied the heart of the YMCA—connection, care, and community. His spirit will live on in the smiles, memories, and friendships he created every day.

Please join us in remembering Ryan through this slideshow of moments that reflect the joy he brought to our Y family.
