Betty Sue Bryant

Betty Sue Bryant, 73, passed away Thursday, April 29, 2021 at Brandley Hospice House, Summerfield, Florida. She was born in Richmond, Indiana October 25, 1947, and was the daughter to the late Willie and Elizabeth (Griffin) Bryant.  She is survived by her daughters, Sandra McIntosh (Billy), Citrus Springs, FL and Cyndi Ganley (Al), Bradenton, FL; her grandchildren, Stephanie Ganley (Joe), Fairborn, Ohio and Abby Ganley, Bradenton, FL; her brother, Carl Bryant (Anita), Prosperity, SC; her sister in law, Tina Hamilton, Dunnellon, FL; her cousins, Dale and Randy Griffin, and Judy Maines;  her furry granddogs, Sparky, Cassie, Shadow, Precious and Marly; and Betty’s good friend and caretaker, Francine Stewart, and many special friends both far and near.  

Betty moved to Dunnellon about six years ago from Ohio and loved Florida life. She enjoyed crafting, gardening, swimming, sunsets, exploring parks, fishing, horses, dogs, country music, and drinking white Russian’s.  She considered a perfect evening relaxing and socializing with family and friends. Perhaps her favorite pastime was joking around and playing silly tricks on people.  In her younger years, Betty worked at various customer service jobs, volunteered at her local hospital, and loved caring for her wide array of pets including dogs, Ginger, Buffy, and Betsy, a horse named Classy that she sometimes called Classy Sassy, a duck named Barney, a goat named Billy, and a cow named OJ.  What a life Betty has lived! She will be greatly missed by all of her family and friends.

Betty’s family will be receiving family and friends on Thursday, May 6, 2021 from 11:30-12:30 at Roberts Funeral Home, 19939 E. Pennsylvania Ave., Dunnellon, FL. Funeral Services will follow at 12:30 PM followed by a private reception. Flowers are certainly welcome and appreciated (yellow was Betty’s favorite). 

Donations may also be made to Nate’s Honor Animal Rescue in Bradenton, FL.  They rescue, care for, and place pets in forever homes.
