Mark Anthony Bryant

At the young age of 53, Mark Anthony Bryant passed unexpectantly on December 6, 2018 and is already sorely missed by all who knew him.

Mark was born on July 6, 1965. Mark was the lucky husband of Loretta Sue Sweeney, both from McDowell County, West Virginia.

Mark was the most incredible Popaw and enjoyed spoiling his grandbabies, Dawsyn, Jaxton, Kynleigh-Ann, and Kaitlyn.

Mark and Loretta raised one daughter, LeAnn Sparks, who is married to Adam and they live in Hiddenite.

Mark was the proud owner and operator of Bryant Fence and Handrail in Hiddenite. He not only enjoyed building, installing, and welding his projects, he was good at it too. He enjoyed providing his service to the community and never met a stranger.

Mark had a very contagious laugh that often infected all of those around him. His personality was larger than life and quickly made him the center of attention wherever he was.

Mark’s funeral services were entrusted to Fanning Funeral Home in Iaeger, West Virginia and held on Tuesday, December 11, 2018.

The family will be holding a Celebration of Life service as an opprotunity to honor Mark at Sugar Loaf Fire Department,  3564 NC Hwy 16N, Taylorsville, NC 28681 on December 29, 2018 at 1 p.m. This will not be a formal event, they will enjoy some good food, some laughs, and one another!
