Mr. William Bryan McGee, age 66

Of New Johnsonville, TN passed away Thursday, January 15, 2026, at Humphreys County Nursing Home. He was born on February 18, 1959, in Waverly, TN to William and Maggie Mae McGee.

Bryan was a member of the First Baptist Church in Lobelville, TN. He was also a man who cherished the beauty of the great outdoors. He enjoyed spending countless hours fishing, hunting, and riding motorcycles, activities that brought him immense joy and a sense of freedom. His love for nature was only matched by his vibrant personality, which shone through in his delightful sense of humor. Bryan was known for his ability to tell a good joke, bringing laughter and light into the lives of those around him.

As we remember Bryan, we celebrate not only the activities that brought him joy but also the warmth and kindness he shared with family and friends. His legacy of love and laughter will be cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

The family has chosen cremation, and a memorial service will be held at a later date.
