Bruce Brigham Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sly Family Funeral Home on Jan. 30, 2026.
Bruce Byron Brigham, 95, of Burton, passed away Wednesday, January 28, 2026. He was born January 2, 1931, in Chardon, Ohio, to the late Walter and Marion (Pease) Brigham. Bruce graduated from Burton High School in 1950 and served in the US Army. A dedicated community member, Bruce was a member of the Burton Congregational Church, where he assisted in many remodeling projects and volunteered at the Burton Food Cupboard. He was also an active member of the Burton American Legion, Burton Chamber of Commerce, Burton Jaycees, and East Geauga Kiwanis. As the owner of B. B. Brigham Remodeling Company, he shared his craftsmanship with many. Bruce was an avid fan of the Cleveland Guardians (Tribe) and the Cavs. He enjoyed gardening, woodworking, notably crafting cedar chests for family and friends-camping, and snowmobiling. Most of all, he cherished time spent with his family.

He will be sadly missed by his children: Janet (Russell) Jacques of Burton; sons, Byron (Catherine) Brigham of Gainesville, Virginia, and David (Susan) Brigham of Burton; grandchildren, Mary (Scott) Erdbruegger, Rachel (Daniel) Bretzius, Seth Brigham, and Emmett Brigham; and great-grandchildren, Edison, Ean, Lacey, Kelsey, and Quintin. He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Patsy (Briggs) Brigham, whom he married July 28, 1956, and who passed away January 30, 2024.

A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, February 7, 2026, at 12:00 PM at the Burton Congregational Church, 14558 West Park Street, Burton, Ohio 44021.
