Oct. 23, 1961 – Dec. 3, 2009

Bryan Eric Henwood, 48, passed away Dec. 3, in Payson, as a result of a heart attack he suffered on July 29. He was born on Oct. 23, 1961, in Fontana, Calif., to Ernest and Johanna Henwood.

The family moved to Livermore, Calif., when Bryan was a small child. There, during his youth, he rode some in junior rodeos. That gave way to bicycling. One of his favorite things was long-distance riding with the family’s Aussie shepherd trotting along side. He loved family get-togethers and will be remembered for his great sense of humor.

Bryan worked most of his adult life in the construction industry as a roofer and a framer. He made Lake Havasu City his home from California 11 years ago.

Bryan leaves behind his beloved family; son, Kyle Samuelson, of Freemont, Calif.; mother, Johanna Henwood, of Lake Havasu City; and two brothers, Brad Henwood, of Fremont, Calif., and Kevin Henwood, of San Bernardino, Calif. He was preceded in death by his father, Ernie Henwood.
