Rest in peace, sweet Bryan. There is a mighty blues song being sung in Heaven. Our family loves you so much and we will miss that twinkle in your eyes. "All night and all day/The angels keep watch over me." Ray Charles sang this for Sam Cooke, and we are singing it now for you. We will miss you more than words can explain. God speed, Mary, Michael and James

I knew Bryan at Thomas Jefferson and he was always sweet and a kind spirit. I lost touch through the years but had the pleasure of visiting with him at Farley's open house. I pray that his family will draw close to God at this time. He is fine, with God in the spiritual realm! I know you will be missed, but free from your suffering!
