Clarence Lawrence Bryan, 92, went home to be with the Lord on Friday, February 4, 2022. He was born in Albuquerque, NM on March 10, 1929 to Clarence Jennings Bryan and Mildred Jewell Bryan. He graduated from Albuquerque High School and then enlisted in the U.S. Navy where he served in the North and South Pacific. During his tour of duty, he married his Albuquerque sweetheart, Dorothy Louise Davis. A union that lasted 72years. Upon his return from proudly serving his country, he went to work as a stereotype for the Albuquerque Journal and Tribune. God blessed Bud and Dorothy with daughter Cindy and son Michael.

Bud was a gifted musician playing the fiddle in a band that played all over central and northern New Mexico, as well as competing in Old Time Fiddler contests throughout the Southwest. His love for music combined with his mastery wood working skills led him to becoming an instrument maker of violins and guitars. He was an avid golfer and his favorite playing partner was his son, Mike. Utilizing his farming and gardening skills, he and the family built a putting green on their property that rivaled all that existed on the golf courses in Albuquerque. Bud also loved to hunt, fish, and any other outdoor activity. But his greatest love was reserved for his wife, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. He took great pride in everything they did.

In 2021, Bud and Dorothy left their home in the South Valley that he built in 1954 and moved to Cliff to be nearer to their daughter, Cindy and many of their grandchildren. Bud is survived by his wife Dorothy of Cliff; daughter, Cindy Shock (Pete) of Cliff; son, Michael Bryan (Deedra) of Orland, CA; grandchildren, Jonathan Bryan, Nicole Griffin (Ty), Brian Shock (Chelsea), Heather Bird (Shaun) and great-grandchildren, Madisyn Bryan, Isabella Bryan, Allyson Bryan, Luke Griffin, Jack Griffin, Ben Griffin, Holt Griffin, Brennan Shock, Bryson Shock, Cambree Shock, Brooklyn Bird and Xavier Bird. He is also survived by his brother, Bob Bryan and sister Anna Wood. Bud was preceded in death by his parents, Clarence and Jewell Bryan, brothers, John Bryan and Jim Bryan and sister Helen Smith and grandson, Kernan Bryan.

A memorial service will be held at Terrazas Funeral Chapels at 2pm on Saturday, February 12, 2022 with Pastor Mike Bryan officiating.
