I grew up with Bryant at La Casa and ended up a year behind him at CalLu. Even though we didn't know eachother well, he kindly offered rides back to Phoenix from CA and would never take a dollar for gas. I remember laughing the entire 8 hour drive every time we did it. 
I didn't have the pleasure to know him in adulthood but I'm certain that that kindness and humour was as much of him as his faith. I am tremendously sorry for your loss.

I remember Bryant for the deep love he had for his family and how he lived life with heart and conviction. He was one of my first supervisors in my professional career and I will never forget his mentorship and the interest he took towards my career and more importantly, me as person. He truly cared about others’ well being. The impact he’s made as a husband, father, son, and leader in the community will forever live on.

I'm so deeply sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you and your family during this unimaginable time of grief. Your whole family is on my mind and in my heart.

Bryant and I worked together for years at Merck. I am always impressed by his accounting expertise. We bring hard accounting topics to him and he always has an answer for us. He is our go to person for translating complex accounting rules. I am heart breaking when I heard about him. Family photo is so adorable and this family will always be in my thoughts. I still remembered at one of Merck meetings, Bryant and I logged on few minutes early. While waiting for others to join, we started to chat about our kids. He mentioned that he sometimes gets nervous when his phone rings during the day because his daughter practices gymnastic. He has quiet few orthopedic doctor numbers prepared. I can tell Bryant is a great father. Bryant, you will always be in my memory!

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family/friends, Amy.  Deepest condolences and may the love and support of family help you through such a tragic time.

I am so sorry for your loss.  I worked with Bryant for years at Merck KGaA.  He was  a remarkably smart colleague, patient in  explaining complex accounting concepts, and incredibly collaborative.  I will always remember him fondly.  I am so sorry to your family.

Unlike most of you, I have been lucky enough to have known Bryant his whole life.  I put this picture of him at his first family reunion. He was only 4 years old here.  He is standing on the rock.  Family has been part of his life even back then.  Many of the folks in this picture are no longer with us.  Bryant is the first of his McKinley generation to join them.  I am convinced he will give an accounting of what's been going on.  Every time we got together at any gathering, he always addressed me as 'Uncle  Warren' , like I was his favorite.  GOD rest your soul BRYANT LUCAS MCKINLEY.

My condolences to the McKinley family. I remember meeting Bryant shortly after he joined Insight. Our first encounter was at Insight’s Chandler HQ on a quiet Friday afternoon. I didn’t know who he was at the time, but I introduced myself, and his response left a strong impression on me. He came across as a kind-hearted person, and whenever I saw him, I would always call out his name, knowing I would receive a friendly response. Although I rarely worked with him directly, I attended several calls where it was clear he was eager to contribute his skills and experience. In addition to being a genuinely nice guy, he was a great leader who had much to offer. He will be missed.

Amy

I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that my thoughts are with you during this incredibly difficult time. While no words can truly ease the pain you’re feeling, I hope the cherished memories you hold close will bring you moments of comfort and peace in the days to come. 

Wishing you strength, comfort, and the love of those around you. May the memories of Bryant always be a blessing in your life.

With my deepest sympathy,

Bryant was such a great person and father. He made many memories with Lily and I as we have been friends for so long. Some of the best memories that I shared with Bryant included the trip to Disneyland that we went on the celebrate Lily’s birthday. I also had a record breaking number of sleepovers with Lily. We played games and ran around the house with Bryant as he chased us. One of my all time favorite memories was at a sleepover that I had with Lily. I went downstairs to make popcorn in the microwave. All the lights in the house were out and Bryant was sitting on the couch watching TV. I went to open the microwave and heard Bryant yell, “Louis get off the counter!” It scared me so bad and all I yelled back was, “It’s me, Emma!” He then apologized and explained to me that the dog knows how to access the microwave. This memory was something that I shared with both him and Lily. He will be missed and will forever be in our hearts.
