James and I met while attending South High School. We had fun in the classes we had together. He was always a joy to be with. I am moved and humbled by his service to our community. His joy was apparent and his laugh lifted my spirit. Praying Strength and Mercy for his family.

JB will forever be the wise and thoughtful leader who gave me a chance at a career that I loved. Who showed faith in me and many others we worked with at the Court. JB´s heart and words proved he was a man of integrity everyday. He will be greatly missed. Peace be with his loving family.

Dear Bryant Family, You lost, truly a MAN OF HONOR! I served with him on the Concerned Citizens Board, his wife is my Delta Sigma Theta Sister; my husband worked with in the juvenile courts/ GRPS school programs; he was ALWAYS concerned about the young people. He was the Black, E F Hutton, when he spoke, we all listened for the wisdom. So sorry for the community´s loss, as well as the loss to his family. With Much Love

So sorry to hear of loss of J. B. I knew him from my work experience through the County and was on the Board of Directors with him at Head Start when he was the Board Chair for many years. He was a great man! I loved hearing him speak. He was very smart and offered great intellect in resolving any issue or concern. You could tell he was a man of great faith and had the heart of a teacher. I am very fortunate to have known James Bryant. Peace be with you.
