Mrs. Bryan was an inspiration to me through all 4 years at Cactus High School. She helped me believe in myself in a way that no other teacher could. When ever you needed an ear or a shoulder she was there. You will be dearly missed. I know that there is another special angel watching over us.

Jane was a very special person and everyone who works at Mountain Vista Health and Wellness will remember her vibrant spirit and infectious smile. We always enjoyed her visits and will miss her very much. She was a true beauty and wonderful person.
