Russell Bryant Obituary

Russell Lee Bryant, lovingly known as "Robbie," was born on August 6, 1961, in Chicago, Illinois. He passed away peacefully on September 28, 2025, at 5:30 p.m. in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.

Robbie lived life with a free spirit and a love for the open road.

He will be remembered for his big heart, adventurous soul, and his passion for Harley Davidson motorcycles. Robbie is survived by his loving family : his wife, Connie, who shared in his life & love. Children: Rebekah (Mike), Megan, Robbie, & Taylor (Cherokee Sr.). Grandchildren: Ciara, Jordan, Aryanna, Krissy, Jaxson, Bella, Justin, Aaliyah, Jeremiah, Cherokee Jr., Kie, Mia and Bryson. Great Grandchildren: Londyn, A'Laiah, Jalen Jr., Zy'aire. Sisters: Kay (Jesse), Kathy, Sue (Donnie), Pam, and Christy (Tommy). Brother: Mark (Crystal).Along with a host of nieces and nephews who will always cherish his memory.

He was preceded in death by his parents (Russell & Wanda) his brother Mike, his nephew Rob, and a host of dear friends who welcomed him home.

Robbie was an avid fan of the University of Louisville Cardinals, the San Francisco 49ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers.

He had a deep love for all kinds of music and a gift for fixing or rigging up just about anything. He was known for his sweet tooth, but above all, his greatest joy came from spending time with his grandbabies, who were the light of his life.

Robbie's journey here on earth has ended, but his love, laughter, and spirit will continue to ride on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
