Posted at 15:59h, 18 AprilI went to school with Bryson from 1st to 6th grade and remember how incredibly intellegent he was. he was a very good friend to me and was always very nice and polite. Probably the favorite part of my school day was when i got to talk with him and brendan at lunch. I am deeply sorry for the loss of Bryson and feel for his family. He will be greatly missed but definately not forgotten. I am looking forward to seeing Bryson again in a paradise earth where “death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.The former things hae passed away.”Revelation 21:4. there is a lot of helpful information for those who have lost their loved ones in death on JW.org. Hopefully this information can help you as it has helped me in the past. Sincerely DJ Cheman.
