Ryan Wade James Davis

Son, brother, grandson, nephew, friend, and comedian. Ryan Wade James Davis left us way too soon. Ryan, 25, of Oshawa, passed away during the early morning hours on November 27th, 2025. Ryan suffered from Epilepsy.

Born in Brampton Ontario on September 27th, 2000, Ryan is survived by his parents Kevin Davis and Janice Waddick (Julie), his beloved big sister Ashley (Cory), and his grandmother Kay Waddick of Chatham, Ontario. He’ll also be missed by a whole crew of family and friends including his best friends Owen and Olivia as well as his beloved cat Thor. Ryan is predeceased by his grandfather Maurice Waddick and grandparents Bruce & Shirley Davis of Orillia, Ontario.

Ryan loved to laugh and be silly, especially if it meant teasing his older sister Ashley or playing pranks on his loved ones. He had a huge appetite for learning: learning multiple languages, guitar and Judo. Most recently Ryan began volunteering at the Canadian Tank Museum, a place where he found himself and discovered a passion for Pyrotechnics.

Kindness came naturally to Ryan, he went out of his way to support his friends, family and even strangers. Wherever Ryan went the room got brighter, louder and funnier. For such a young man he touched the lives of many in a memorable way and will be deeply missed.

A Celebration of Life will be held Sunday, December 14th from 1pm to 3pm at the 420 Wing (https://420wing.com/), 1000 Stevenson Rd N, Oshawa.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial donations be made to the Canadian Tank Museum Charity in Ryan’s name. Donation link: https://tankmuseum.ca/donate/
