Robert "Bobby" Bryan was born to Ruth and Vernon Bryan on May 4, 1956 in Yerington, NV. He was the youngest of six siblings.  Bobby graduated from Smith Valley High School in 1974.  After graduation he stayed on the family ranch alongside his father and brother, Bud.

On June 29, 1981, he married his sweetheart of only two months, Margarita "Maggie" Lopez. They immediately started their family, his son, Robert "Bert" was their first born, then came Angela and Victoria. His children blessed him with six grandchildren, Javi, Brooklyn, Mariana, Harper, Isa and Jaxon, who were his pride and joy.

Bobby was a rancher all his life. He served his community by being a member of the Smith Valley Fire Department and an EMT for 31 plus years. He was a board member of the Walker River Irrigation District for 21 plus years. He also served on many other various boards throughout his life.

Bobby was one of the most unselfish human beings anyone has ever known and he was always willing to help out with anything. His laugh will be missed by all who were blessed to experience his love, friendship and company.

Bobby went out for his last drive, slowly driving around the valley and drove straight through the pearly gates.
