Bryon was one-of-a-kind. He had a wild soul but also enjoyed the simple things in life. He was a good man who loved his life and lived it to the fullest. He was always down for an adventure, whether it was climbing a mountain, going for a drive, or taking a neighborhood walk with his wife and son to get a slurpee. Bry had a huge heart; He was the guy that would help a stranger, put in an honest day’s work, and he always kept his word. Everyone who knew him felt his genuine kindness.

In addition to being a devoted family man, Bryon lived and breathed metal and fabricating. Bryon came from a family of Journeyman welders, but he was proudly the first B-pressure welder in his family. He loved welding, learning, and creating custom one-of-a-kind masterpieces. He was a continuous learner—always brainstorming how to improve a technique or process, and constantly getting new certifications.

Bryon loved learning and going to college. He completed his schooling and proudly passed along tricks of the trade. This scholarship will give that same chance to someone else.  

Please consider a contribution to this fund in Bryon’s memory, which will help future apprentice welders for years to come.
