Bryan was born on December 10, 1946 to Georgia Taylor and Omer Grelle. He attended High School in Sonora, TX and was active in sports.

After graduation, he served in the U.S. Army, including a tour in Vietnam. While stationed at Ft Riley, Kansas he met and married Kathy Lynn Watts.

After leaving the Army, he returned Texas where he worked as a police officer, aircraft painter, and other jobs before returning to be a rancher on his family ranch in La Pryor.

An avid outdoorsman, he loved to hunt and fish. Also a great lover of animals, he was known to rescue stray animals- a trait he passed to his children and grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Omer and Georgia Grelle, sister Sandra Grelle, brother Mike Grelle, his dog Lacey, and his beloved wife of 50 years Kathy Grelle.
