On June 2 ^nd , 2022, Bryson Duncan Collins ran into the arms of Jesus at the age of 11. He was born to Dustin and Shelta Collins on September 6 ^th , 2010, in Houston, Texas. Bryson, his parents, and younger brother Boston reside in Magnolia, Texas. He attended Northpointe Intermediate School in Tomball ISD and was a member of Magnolia's Cowboy Church, where he was baptized on March 28 ^th , 2021.

Bryson was the brightest light in any room he entered and constantly illuminated Jesus' love. From a young age, he was enthralled with all things little boys love. He had a specific love for sports, hunting, and fishing. Bryson could always be seen playing with a football, baseball, or any other sport involving a ball. He was on many sports teams where he quickly became a leader and everyone's best friend. Not only did Bryson love sports, but he truly loved his little brother, Boston. Bryson had been teaching Boston to be brave and explore the world around him and took the job of being his protector very seriously.

His infectious, dimpled smile, silly laughter, beautiful golden locks of hair, and big blue eyes will live in our minds and hearts forever. The joy he brought to those around him was immeasurable. Bryson was the best son, brother, grandson, cousin, friend, teammate, and servant of Jesus Christ beyond his years. To those that didn't know him, he was always lending a hand to those in need, approaching every day with passion and grit. Most notably, he always brought about fun and laughter until your cheeks hurt.

We know he will be hitting home runs and scoring touchdowns with Jesus. Bryson truly embodied Philippians 3:14, "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."

Bryson is preceded in death and now in the loving company of his grandmother, Linda Mills Duncan, great grandmother, Betty Collins, great grandmother, Mary Duncan Senior, and great grandparents, Rodney and Barbara Scarbrough.
