He met the love of his life, Evelyn, in April 1947 and married her 3 months later, they enjoyed 66 years together – 50 of which they lived in Foam Lake. She predeceased him in January 2013.[2] Bryan lived the majority of his life in Leslie and Foam Lake .[1] His election to the provincial assembly in 1967 was declared invalid[3] and he lost the subsequent by-election held in 1969 to Neil Byers.[4]
