Michael Robert Bryant II, age 37, passed away on Friday, September 13th, 2024, in Omaha, NE. He was born on October 31, 1986, in Atlanta, GA to Michael and Diane Bryant. Michael was surrounded by family, friends and an overwhelming amount of love when he passed.

Throughout his life, Michael lived in many places, where his magnetic personality easily blessed him with many lifelong friends with whom he enjoyed many hobbies and activities such as golfing, camping, boating, fishing, and traveling. He loved the outdoors and anything to do with water. Some of his best stories of his adventures seem unbelievable to share with anyone who wasn't there to bear witness to them, they were something you would only see in movies!

Although Michael had a touch of wanderlust, his heart was either in Key Largo, FL or Omaha, NE, the latter of which was where his beautiful daughter, Caylee Jade, was born. As Michael would tell anyone who was near "she is the best thing I ever did!". Caylee was the light of his life, and his eyes would always light up whenever he was asked about her. They had a very special bond and especially loved watching supernatural together. We are blessed to see Michael live on through Caylee.

Grateful to have shared his life was his mother, Diane Bryant; daughter, Caylee Jade Roegge; uncles, David (Julie) Pollock and Dan Pollock; aunt, Laura Bryant; numerous cousins, extended family and friends.

Michael was preceded in death by his father, Michael Bryant; grandparents, Don and Betty Pollock and Arnold and Mary Jo Bryant.

Graveside Services will be at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, September 21, 2024 at Evergreen Cemetery in Anita, Iowa, with Reverend Ted Weishaupt officiating.

The family will greet friends at a luncheon at the Anita American Legion Hall following the service.

Memorial contributions may be directed to the family and can be sent in care of Schmidt Family Funeral Home to P.O. box 523, Atlantic, Iowa 50023.

The Schmidt Family Funeral Home of Anita is caring for the Bryant family at this time.
