My father is Bud Bryan. He p***ed away on Sunday March 15, 2026. My father, Edward, most knew him as Bud, was a loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend. He was a true original, an artist through and through. Whether writing, sketching, leatherworking, or behind the camera lens, he was always creating, designing and building something from nothing.

Dad was a true visionary. His talent for designing street rods went beyond mechanics...it was art. He didn’t just build cars; he brought them to life, leaving an indelible mark on the hot rod community and those who knew him.

Growing up, I didn’t always see it, but dad was undeniably cool and I am so proud of his legacy. Through his storytelling, he gave me a lifelong love for hot rods. Recently, we spent hours going through old photos, including those from his hot rod days, as he shared stories behind each one in vivid detail. I will always hold dear these last moments with him.

Thank you all for your kind words about my dad and for sharing the many ways he touched your lives.
