Royal "Sonny" Bryant, 49, passed away after a long illness on Monday, November 25, 2013. He was born in Plymouth, the son of Royal Bryant, Sr of Plymouth and Patricia A Bryant of Middleboro. Sonny loved, more than anything, spending time with family and friends. He especially loved Sunday football with Brian and Heather. Sonny also leaves behind his siblings, Dianna Sisson of Plymouth, William Bryant of Plymouth and Michelle Bryant of Lakeville, as well as his son, Marc Allan of Plymouth. He also leaves behind his best friend, Brad, who was more like a brother than a friend. He was preceded in death by his siblings Terri Bryant, Robert Bryant and Sharon Shea. Sonny will be missed by multiple nieces and nephews as well as friends. Funeral arrangements will be made by the Bartlett Funeral Home, 338 Court Street, Plymouth. A funeral mass will be held on Wednesday, December 4, 2013 at 10:00 am at St. Mary's Church in Plymouth. Interment will be private. The family would like to offer a special thank you to Cranberry Hospice for their exceptional care, love and support.
