Bryan was a fun-loving little boy with an adventurous spirit and a sweet heart.
He never lost those qualities, even as he grew into young adulthood, and he will be sorely missed by all who loved him. He was an active athlete as a child, playing soccer for both NASA and Concorde Fire, winning tournaments on the state and national level. He attended St. Francis School, Walton High School, the University of North Georgia, and Kennesaw State University. He was predeceased by his mother, Julie Gross Willingham. He is survived by his maternal grandparents, Mr. & Mrs. Carl R. Gross, Sr; his father, G. Stephen Willingham; his sister, Katherine Willingham; and a large, loving family of aunts, uncles, and cousins. Visitation with family will be at 11:00 on Sunday morning, May 6 with a memorial service to follow at noon at the Sandy Springs Chapel, 136 Mount Vernon Hwy, Sandy Springs, GA 30328. In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to a charity of your choice in memory of Bryan.
