Brooke was Bryson's classmate and she told us he loved to play Batman vs Superman. They would play this on the playground. She also told us he was a gentleman, any time she fell or dropped something he would help pick her up or pick up whatever she dropped. He was a very kind young man.

May 6, 2016

We pray that God grants you all strength and peace in your time of bereavement. Though you may not see Bryson in the flesh anymore, he will forever live in your hearts. Extending our deepest condolences to you all.

Over God's Rainbow
There is a place I'm told, where beautiful children go, it's high above the clouds, just over God's rainbow
The peace is so divine, more than we all know; and all the children laugh and play just over God's rainbow
We love our children dearly, and never want to let them go, but there was a need for this sweet child just over God's rainbow
Grief is a part of life and healing is sometimes slow, but beyond the clouds live your own little angel just over God's rainbow
I refuse to say don't cry, go ahead and let the tears flow, but remember the day your baby got wings and soared over God's rainbow
Sleep little one sleep, but I'll never let you go; I've entrusted you in my savior's hands just over God's rainbow
And after ever rain, I'll look up from here below, and remember a part of me still lives just over God's rainbow

Endless Love

Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. To Dontra and Shawn, my deepest condolences to you both. My heart sincerely weeps for you but I know that God will give you strength and peace during this time. Your baby boy is resting with the father and one day you'll see him on the other side. Love you both, RIL Bryson...

Yushawn and Family,

I am deeply saddened and heartbroken from the loss of your sweet baby boy Bryce. Sometimes we may not truly understand why certain things happen in this life, but because we have the comfort and peace of our Lord and Savior, the only thing we can do is rest in Him. Be encouragement and of good cheer knowing that one day we will all see Bryce again... Shawn, you are my dearest friend, my big sister and my encourager. When I have hard times or need a word of encouragement, you have always been there every time and for that saying thank you wouldn't be enough! You and the kids have become like family and just know at any time of any day I am always and will always be here for you all. The Moore, Johnson, Hill and Mcvea family sends their condolences from Houston, Austin and Arlington.

Words can't explain how deeply saddening this is. You may ask the question "why," but just know that God doesn't make mistakes. No mother ever wants to get the phone call about something happening to one of her loved ones. I just pray that you all be strong and keep God by your side and he will guide you through this.

To Dontra & YuShawn,

Bryson will be missed so badly. God's time is not our time, He has completed his time and purpose on this side of earth and is now with the Lord. I pray that God will give you both peace in knowing Bryson is alright and is with the Father that created him. He knows just whats best for him.
Weeping may endure for a night, but God will give you joy in the morning. Rest Well Bryson, see you on the other side!

Your neighbor
