Ryan T. Bowhall, 44, of LaFayette NY, passed away Monday, January 12th.

He was a graduate of Onondaga Community College.

Ryan was a very successful machinist for over 20 years, most recently with Baker Hughes in Skaneateles.

He enjoyed scuba diving, spear fishing, and jet skiing. An avid collector of artifacts and a stargazer at heart, Ryan often spent his evenings peering through his telescope, fascinated by outerspace.

He was predeceased by his father, Thomas Bowhall.

Surviving are his mother, Georgann (Craig) Purtell, of Southport, NC; paternal grandmother, Roseanne Bowhall; siblings, Joshua Bowhall, Corey (Sammy) Bowhall, Alyssa Bowhall, Brianna Purtell, Adam (Jennifer) Purtell, Adrienne (Brian) Votra, Nick (Adrienne) Purtell, as well as, many nieces and nephews.

There will be no calling hours. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date for family and close friends.
