In Memory Of
Ryder Trevon Scott Ballinger

Indianapolis - Ryder Trevon Scott Ballinger was born February 19, 2018. He was diagnosed with Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and fought every day of his life, despite the many obstacles that were thrown at him. Ryder was such a strong boy and his feats were amazing! He was cared for by the wonderful staff at Riley Children's Hospital for 100 days and was finally able to go home to his family where they showed him the comfort he needed and the love he deserved. His smiles and coos would just brighten anyone's soul. Friday, July 6, 2018 at 7:15 a.m., his fight finally came to an end. He was surrounded with love and his family wouldn't have had it any other way.
