RYAN ALLEN BABKA

Ryan Allen Babka passed away on May 12, 2020 just three days shy of his son’s 9th birthday, and 5 days before his 36th birthday. Ryan was born in Baltimore, Maryland on May 17, 1984 to Nancy (Allen) Babka of New Hampshire, and Rodney Bernard Babka of Maryland. He was raised in Edgewood, Maryland, Cuddeback, NY, and Dingman’s Ferry, PA. Ryan moved to NH in the spring of 2006. Ryan married Lawrae Buonopane in November 2010 and was never more proud than when he became a first time parent when his son Noah Ryan Babka was born on May 15, 2011. Hunter Strieff Babka followed soon after on December 4, 2012. Ryan was passionate about the outdoors, and enjoyed family camping trips. He could cook up a mean meal over a campfire, enjoyed hunting and fishing, and was an avid gardener (the woodchucks loved him for that). He delighted at letting his grandfather know each summer who had caught the largest brook trout. Ryan had many hobbies which he pursued with enthusiasm such as hanayama mechanical puzzles, making hard apple cider and his most recent interest, working with a forge. Ryan is survived by his two son’s, his girlfriend, Sara Garland, his parents and stepmother Susan Babka, his siblings, sister Heather Babka of Emeryville, CA, Brother Nicholas Babka and his girlfriend Robin Bishop of South San Francisco, CA, brother Alexander Wing and girlfriend Hanna Ford of Ashland, NH, and Sister Savannah Thompson and boyfriend Anthony Graton of Ashland, NH. He also leaves behind his maternal grandparents, Fred and Lyn Allen of Ashland and many aunts, uncles, and cousins as well as great-aunts and uncles and cousins once removed. There will be no services at this time. Dupuis Funeral Home is handling the arrangements. For more information go to: Dupuisfuneralhome.com.
