Bryan Happe- Born 3/22/1959Bryan was the 5th out of 7 children in our family and we were so fortunate to have such wonderful parents, John Happe, our father passed January 8th this year and our mother Kay Happe passed also this year on June 2. Now Bryan another cherished family member died the weekend of July 4th. Bryan lived for his family; our one sister refers to Bryan as the "Gentle Giant", which does describe Bryan perfectly. Not one word uttered was insincere, he was direct and honest. One of Bryans many wonderful traits is that he was able to see the good in every person, and never passed judgment.Bryan kept to himself, he overcame a mental disease which he was diagnosed with in his teen years. One member in Boley referred to Bryan as one their success stories. Bryan was determined to make the best out of life, largely due to his faith and spirituality. Up until the tragic end of his life, Bryan was at peace with himself.Bryan was loved by his family, as well adored by his nieces & nephews we will miss him especially for Thanksgiving and Christmas, since he was able to spend more time with us, and he truly looked forward to our holiday meals, which he greatly appreciated. What many people take for granted, Bryan was appreciative for any small task that was done for him. He was so easy to Love and he will be missed immensely, in closure, the bright light is that he is with our Mom, Dad, brothers Neil & Jackie... and our family pet Sadie. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Monday July 18th 2011 at 10:30AM in St Cecelia Catholic Church, Clearwater, FL.
