WINSLOW — Ronald ( Ron) Bert Bryant, age 67, of Evansville, Ind.,
(formerly of Winslow) died Thursday, March 9, 2006, at St. Mary's Medical
Center in Evansville, Ind. from a brief illness.
Ron was retired from Rexam Closures after more than 20 years of
employment. Prior employment was with Jasper Rubber Company and Potter and
Brumfield. Ron had been a military policeman during his time in the U.S. Army.
Ron was raised in Winslow, Ind., and built a log cabin and happily
resided as a naturalist for a few years. It was his dream to again live
that lifestyle in his retirement years but his life was cut short. Ron had a passion for hunting and fishing, and had gotten several deer
and turkeys throughout his life. He enjoyed whittling his own
fishing lures
and trying them out at several favorite fishing holes.
He was preceded in death by his mother and step-dad, Winnie and Si
Fettinger; and his grandparents who raised him. He is survived by daughter, Lisa Burchett of Olmstead, Ky.; a son, Greg
Bryant of Arthur, Ind.; three sisters, Mary Camplin of Huntingburg, and two
of his caregivers during his illness, Lynn Clark of Washington, Ind., and
Dana Siekman of Oakland City, Ind.; three grandchildren; five
great-grandchildren; his fishing buddy, Bob Leistner; and his hunting
buddy, Kevin Smith.
Arrangements are being handled by Curtis Funeral Home, 300 Walnut St.,
Winslow, Ind., where the family will receive friends from 4 to 8 p.m. Pike
County Time, Sunday, March 12, 2006. Funeral service will be at 2 p.m.

Jim Pullum officiating. Interment will be at Oak Hill Cemetery in Winslow,
