Bryant Dennis Nolan

Bryant Nolan, 47, of Wenatchee, WA, passed away on September 9, 2026.

Bryant was born in Kirkland, WA, on February 22, 1979, to Scott Nolan and Sherry Frailey. He grew up and attended school in Chehalis, WA, after moving there as a young child. He had a brilliant mind, a natural curiosity, and a love of learning. He later attended Edmonds Community College, where he earned an Associate of Arts degree in his pursuit of becoming a chemical dependency counselor.

Bryant loved life, especially when there was a little adventure involved. Whether riding dirt bikes, camping, water skiing, or wakeboarding, he was happiest outdoors, making memories with the people he loved.

If you knew Bryant, you knew his laugh. It was loud, infectious, and unmistakably his. He had a booming voice, a great sense of humor, and a way of making people feel welcome. He loved his family, made friends wherever he went, and genuinely cared about people. He wasn't one to judge others, and he was always willing to help someone who needed it.

His faith was the most important part of his life. Bryant believed in God's grace, in helping others, and in finding something good even when life wasn't easy. He had his share of struggles, but he never lost his love for Jesus or the people around him.

Bryant was a loving son, brother, father, grandfather, uncle, nephew, and friend. He is survived by his mother, Sherry Frailey, and stepfather, Skip Frailey; his father, Scott Nolan; his brothers, Justin (Megan), Kristopher (Kimberly), and Spencer (Ashley); his stepbrothers, Brandon and Derek (Alma); his son, David; his daughter, Lillian (Russell); his granddaughter, Sophia, and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his brother, Tyler; his grandparents, Paul and May; his grandfather, Ward (Audrey) (Betty); and his aunt, Jodi. We find comfort in knowing they are together again.

Bryant, your family will carry your love in our hearts. Your memory is a gift that will always be ours to cherish. We were blessed to have had him on this earth for 17,367 days with you. We all love you. We miss you, and we always will.

Until we meet again, Fly high, Bry Bry.
