Graduated from the general education school in the village of Trybukhivtsi. After getting married, he lived in the village of Ripintsi, Buchach district, Ternopil region. Worked abroad in Europe and the Russian Federation. On August 8, 2014, he was mobilized into the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Served as a shooter - crew member of the airborne assault battalion of the 80th separate airborne brigade of the Airborne Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (military unit A0284, Lviv). From November 9, 2014, he participated in the Anti-Terrorist Operation in eastern Ukraine. In December 2014, as part of the battalion of the 80th separate airborne brigade, he entered the territory of the new terminal of Donetsk airport. On January 9, 2015, senior soldier Rymar was severely injured during an attack by Russian militants on the new terminal of Donetsk airport at the "Romeo" checkpoint due to a hit from an RPG-7. The explosion of a mine severed his left arm, shattered his jaw, and damaged his larynx. The evacuation operation for the severely wounded senior soldier Rymar was carried out independently by sanitary instructor Zynich. Junior sergeant Zynich stopped the soldier's arterial bleeding from the stump of his left arm, lacerated wounds on his face and neck, performed tracheal intubation, and supported his vital functions for 10 hours. As a result, soldier Rymar was successfully evacuated first to a hospital in the city of Artemivsk (now Bakhmut) in the Donetsk region, and then to the Kharkiv military hospital. Later, he was transported by plane to the National Military Medical Clinical Center in Kyiv. For more than two weeks, doctors fought for the soldier's life; he underwent four surgeries and was in a coma. Unfortunately, their efforts proved futile. On January 27, 2015, senior soldier Rymar died at the National Military Medical Clinical Center (Kyiv). On January 30, 2015, he was buried in the cemetery of the village of Trybukhivtsi, Buchach district, Ternopil region.
