Thank you for visiting this memorial page honoring those who either graduated or would have graduated from Granger High School in 1965. We are honoring as many former classmates as we can find who have passed on. They were our friends, associates, teammates and, in some cases, our lifelong partners and companions. We also honor our veterans and those gallant young men who gave their all, in defense of the country they loved so much. To our MIA, James Schiele, we will never forget you and will continue to look forward to the day your remains are returned to the land of the free, the home of the brave.

Thanks to everyone who helped in the development of this memorial page, especially Diane Day Cooper, who would have graduated a Lancer were it not for her parents relocating their family in 1960. Without her, this would not have been possible. Thom Rich

Don Bryner

08/04/1947 - 06/23/2017 

Don Alan Bryner was born to Louis Porter Bryner & Erma Tuttle on 8/4/1947.  He was the second born of six siblings. Arlin (Eileen), Gary (NadaLynn), Jeanette, Lamar, Ellen (Ed), and Boyd.

He received a scholarship to Utah State University, when making the decision to serve his mission his scholarship was lost. He was one of the first missionaries to serve in Italy, attended BYU for a short time, and then began his career working for the United States Post Office.

He was sealed to his sweet heart and love of his life Launa, daughter of James Lavar and Lois Washburn, in the Salt Lake City Temple on September 10th 1970. Together they created seven absolutely beautiful children; Michelle (Brady), Melissa (Art), Jeremey (Jodi), Jason, Angelique (Robb), Alisha (Brian), and Shawnea (Dave). Don and Launa have 23, grand children; Justin, Austin, Dallas, Bret, Aubrie, Sammy, Skylar, Dakoda, Cheyenne, Morgan, Ashlynne, Izyc, April, Wyatt, Xavier, Jakup, Nathan, Shaylee, Danika, Jessica, Jaxson, Logan, and Liam; and two great grand children Kendrick & Eden.  And yes, We were all a special delivery from the postman himself.

Don was a loving family man and a good provider. He was always willing to lend a hand, to anyone in need.

Don was an active member of the LDS church, and served numerous callings mostly in the scouting programs. He was a member of the High Priest Quorum.

His hobbies included mechanics, speed reading mystery’s and science fiction, He enjoyed fishing, camping, boating, jeeping and anything that involved spending time with his family.

Upon retirement he enjoyed going out to breakfast every Friday morning with his “Mrs. B.” He continued his interest with mysteries, not just through reading but also watching them on television.

Our lives will never be the same without you daddy, a part of our heart is missing, we miss you like crazy already and look forward to being in your loving arms again.

A message from your wife – “You took a part of my heart with you when you left this Earth. While my heart longs for you I know you will be waiting. We will be reunited again and my heart will become whole. I love you my Mr. B.”

Preceded in death by his parents, his father and mother in-law, brother Boyd, and grandson Skylar.
