Bryan Chester, age 53, of Lake Ozark, Missouri, passed away on June 20, 2025, in Lake Ozark, Missouri.
Chester was born on August 17, 1971 in Florissant, Missouri; a son of Robert and Cathy (Esselman) Chester.
He was loved by his family and will be greatly missed.
As a young man he loved to race bikes, which led to his love of cars and then The Harley Davidson. He could tell you anything that you did or didn't want to know about engines, car models, and motorcycles.
The last few months were a struggle for Bryan. He couldn't overcome his diagnosis of liver disease. God didn't allow him to suffer for a long period of time. Bryan will be missed and whenever you see a Harley Davidson, just stop and think, he 's riding one in heaven!
Bryan is survived by a host of family and friends.
Arrangements are under the direction of Hedges-Scott-Millard Funeral Homes, 514 Highway 42, Osage Beach, MO 65065 (573) 348-3232. Condolences may be left online for the family at www.hedgesscottmillard.com.
