Keith Ray Bryant, 62,
of Fruita, Colorado, went
to be with our Lord on
August 6, 2022.
Born in Hereford, Texas,
to loving parents, Kennith
and Alease Bryant.
Keith grew up with three sisters, Belinda Knisley,
(Rowland), Patty Weaver, and Kathi Pewters. After
the family moved to Colorado, Keith graduated from
Montrose High School and enlisted in the Navy where
he met the love of his life, also in the Navy, Kathleen
McClellan. On March 17, 1981, they eloped and were
married in South Lake Tahoe, CA.
Keith and Kathleen were blessed with two incredible
sons, Erik McClellan (Danielle) and Justin Bryant
(Trisha), who further blessed them with five beautiful
grandchildren. Their lives continue to be enriched by
many nieces, nephews, great and great-great nieces, and
nephews.
Keith and his family honored his father’s legacy
by forming a family business, Bryant Brothers
Construction, LLC.
He is fondly remembered as a gentle, hardworking,
and extremely generous man who deeply loved his
family, friends, and neighbors. Some experienced and
described Keith as a “Prankster”, while others knew
and appreciated him as “MacGyver”.
Keith loved animals and had a special gift taming and
working with horses. Keith was so much more than can
be put into print... he was a gentleman who liked to say
“Thank you, thank you very much.”
Keith is survived by his wife, Kathleen Bryant, sons,
Erik McClellan (Danielle), Justin Bryant (Trisha), three
sisters, and five grandchildren.
Service for Keith will be at the Veterans Memorial
Park on September 8th at 10:00 am.
