Oliver Earl Bryant

Oliver was a kind and generous man. He loved to laugh and I enjoyed all the stories he told! In the short time I worked with him I learned so much. I also had never or will ever see another man that could draw with both hands at the same time! He was intelligent, caring and my friend. Hope you are happily sailing the seas Oliver! ROLL TIDE!

Oliver Bryant was a man of strength and flaws - he was human. He was many things to many people: military man, naval architect, husband, father. He was my father-in-law. I shall always remember Oliver as a kind man who liked to laugh - a man who took me into the family without hesitation and with a hug. I shall always remember Oliver as a man of the sea, keeping a sharp eye on the winds and on the stars guiding him. I shall miss him.
