Jack William Bryan lost his life on April 8, 2025. Jack was the beloved son of Helen Hart and Daniel Bryan, cherished brother to Conor and Sarah and dear friend to many. The family dog Murphy would wait for Jack to come home every day in the window, according to Jack’s family.
Jack was born on June 27, 2008 at Hinsdale Hospital. He attended Madison School and gained many friendships that lasted throughout his life. His teachers would say he was a loving boy with many fun adventures. Jack attended Hinsdale Middle School where the highlight was the Washington D.C. trip and being on the eighth grade basketball team. Jack became friends with the principals in both schools due to his many fun times there.
As a sophomore, he enjoyed his peers, teachers, counselors and social workers. Jack had a tight group of friends who spent many hours gaming into the night and running around town. He was always the life of the party and the kindest man; Jack was on the honor roll and just received his driver’s license. Jack worked in the summers at the Hinsdale Community Pool, and he loved the people and watching little ones go down the slide.
Jack will always be remembered for his easy smile and the love and affection he showed his family and friends. Jack was often the caregiver in his group of friends when they needed help. His gentle spirit will remain with us always. He is and always will be an amazing son, brother, nephew and grandson. Jack’s funeral was on April 16 at St. Isaac Jogues Catholic Church. Rest in everlasting peace, Jack.
