To the sweet Kalispell boy who became a world traveler and ray of sunshine to all who knew him. I am so grateful to have been able to have spent however fleeting moments in his life.

I will miss you amigo, always good times, great memories over our 15 years of spending the week of July 4th with your family and friends in Oceanside. You and I shared a common interest in surfing and I probably would have never paddled out on the Oregon coast without your encouragement. I have rarely seen a guy more dedicated to learning how to surf - you would go on any day, no matter the conditions - wind, sleet, fog, logs in the water, Bryce would go! A favorite time in my memory is when...

Bryce, aka "Caballero" (Bryce knows) I am so sorry to hear you have left us. We worked together at Intel, quickly became friends and I was fortunate to travel with you on some amazing surf trip adventure to Costa Rica. Your passion for life, authentic and caring personality was addictive. You are a great human being and touched so many lives including my own. I know you are catching the perfect wave up in heaven and know I will see you again someday. Thank you for your friendship and so many...

A most wonderful man who, when talking over our backyard fence, exclaimed he was Kalispell when I told him I was going to a class reunion there Funny how a bond can be formed, growing up in the same town surrounded by snow and mountains I loved Bryce.

Midori, Devona, My thoughts are with you. It has been an honor and fortune having known Bryce and he will always be remembered and loved.

I have so many memories of Bryce, during his stay in San Diego we would share dinners sometimes he cooked other times I would cook. He was like a brother to me. I known him for a short period of time but it felt as if we´ve known each other for ever. He is and will be greatly missed. I love you Brycie, Ms. Lourdes

Bryce exemplified the qualities of a genuine advocate and hero, passionately championing hope and transformation in our healthcare system, dedicating himself to creating a brighter world for everyone. The impact of the Sequence Me Campaign will carry on his spirit, creating ripples of positive change. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to his family during this difficult time.
