Reflections for Correctional Officer Scott Edward Bryant

Happy Fathers Day! Thank you again for our two beautiful daughters! As I have written in here so many times, I get reminded every day of you, just by looking at them. They are a perfect combination of both of us!
Keep your Guardian Angel duties going, we sure keep you busy, don't we?
Catch a big one today with your Dad, I just know that's what you two are doing!
Love and miss you! Micki

It is really hard to believe it has been 9 years. Spent a little time today with Chris and your lovely daughter. Just telling stories about you and tipping a few to your memory. As always...you will never be forgotten!!!

Hard for me to believe that it has been 9 years ago today that we had to lose you. I know that the Great Book is written way before we can ever know what those pages will say, but I really wish that chapter had been skipped! For some reason, today has been especially hard for me. Keep up the great Guardian Angel work! Love and miss you so much right now! RIP

Another year gone, another year that we're still thinking of you and wishing you could be with us. It's hard to believe that we're marking year 9 today. All our love, Terri, Mike, Molly, and Anna

It's coming up on 9 years since you were taken from us. So much has changed. One thing that hasn't changed, for me, is I still think of you each day. Take care.

Just stopped by to say Hello! I got to thinking about the date and it was 29 years and one week ago today that a handsome hillbilly from Montrose came to sit by me in homeroom and ask me if my mom had forgot to teach me how to tie my shoes! I proceeded to put my foot on your leg and I guess the rest is history! I think we were inseparable from that moment until your accident!
Gosh, I miss your crooked grin and ornery laugh! Thanks again for all of the wonderful times and two beautiful girls!
Love you still! Micki

Its been awhile since I have been here, it just never gets easier going back and reading all of the reflections left by our awesome family and friends. I still have a huge void in my heart that cannot be filled, time will never heal this wound!
The leaves are changing and the nights are getting chilly, I just can't help but see your eyes and hear your voice filled with excitement in pursuit of another Bullwinkle!
Love and miss you daily!

Happy 45th today, my friend! 8 years gone without you but not 1 day you haven't been in our thoughts.

It's been a while since I have been to your reflection wall, but that doesn't mean I still don't think of your everyday. I went to visit you tonight and while it is still hard I enjoyed our "chat". Even 8 years later, the little things still remind me of you and sometimes I just close my eyes and relive the memories. Miss you & Love you.

I still think of you everday but this day more that the others and replay thru my head what 7 years ago was like. I hope you and Grandpa Ed are doing well and doing all of the things you love to do. Life still isn't the same but I cherish the memories I have with you!Love you and Miss you more than words will ever be able to describe!

Wow.....7 years ago today ole pal. In some ways it seems like it was last week and in others, it seems like you've been gone forever. Time hasn't made it any easier for many of us. Your gorgeous daughters are grown and your family would make anyone proud! Your recent 2nd grandchild is darling, as well. We still often reflect on times our families spent together. You are greatly missed, my friend. I hope the fish are biting, the monster bucks are rutting, and you are leaving some birdies left on the course for someone else. Talk to you soon. "Watcha gunna do?!" ........Thanks for the watch.

Dear Scotty,
Here we are again.... seven years ago today, we had NO idea what tomorrow, May 17th, was going to bring. It certainly all changed in that tragic moment.

We have learned many of life lessons since you've been gone. I think the most important of these has been to appreciate each and every day as a glorious gift and live it... I mean REALLY live it, don't just go through the motions.

We still cry for our loss, miss you incredibly, and laugh about the good times. Just know, you are continually in our thoughts, and even though we aren't together, we know you are here....

Love you,
Terri, Mike, Molly, and Anna

Every day we see your name on the wall, and in our minds eye we see your smile, your easy manner and remember your dedication to getting the job done. We remember your absolute joy at being with your family and your friends, you gave your life your all and you gave all your life. We will continue to try to keep the cup full (life and duty)and I know a few hoist one (the other kind) for you periodically, for you are never forgotten, Rest in Peace, But if you get bored keep an eye on us and whisper in our ear when things get hairy, like they've been this year.....And again THANKS!!!
And to your family, GOOD JOB and GOD BLESS you too are remembered.

Hi hon!
As I am sure you well know, you have a new beautiful granddaughter!! She arrived on Monday evening the 25th @ 7:50pm. She weighed 7lb 12oz and looks so much like Brooke!! She has dark hair, lots of it, and dark eyes that I think will be brown, just like yours! I just know you would be such a proud Grandpa!! We sure miss and love you each and every day!
We are celebrating Bailie Jo's 19th birthday today! Wow! She sure is a spitting image of you!!
Missing you!! Love, Me
