Friends and family gathered together on June 22 for a private memorial service for Ryan Dunn in Philadelphia. Ryan’s Jackass buddies, including best friend Bam Margera, were also there.
It was an incredibly sad afternoon for those once close with Jackass star Ryan Dunn. The 34-year-old’s funeral was held yesterday afternoon at the DellaVecchia, Reilly, Smith and Boyd funeral home in Wester Chester, Philadelphia. Ryan’s closest friends and co-stars Bam Margera and Johnny Knoxville stood by solemnly. Earlier this week toxicology reports revealed that Ryan was more than two times over the legal alcohol limit — which ultimately led to his fatal car crash on June 20. The Chester County Coroner’s Office states that there were “no drugs of abuse detected” in Ryan’s system at the time of death.
A few hours prior to Ryan’s crash, he was tweeting photos of himself with friends at a local bar and he reportedly drank three beers and had a few shots before getting behind the wheel at 2am.
Also killed in the car crash was Ryan’s friend Zachary Hartwell.

Candle in the Wind (Ryan Dunn’s version)
Goodbye Ryan Dunn
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself…
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to know you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did…
I wish that Elton John would continue doing a Candle In The Wind tribute for every celebrity who died.
LOL
