Patricia “Pat” Bryson, 59, passed away on April 4, 2020. She was born on September 30, 1960 in Illinois to Thomas and Lola Bryson. Pat was an eager, life-long student of anthropology with a love of animals and music. In her youth, Pat enjoyed performing rock, folk, and blues throughout the Chicagoland area and in later years, she shared her love through music across many other states. Pat traveled extensively throughout Canada and India, reveling in sharing her music and exploring the spirituality of other cultures. After her travels, Pat settled in Alamosa, Colorado, and worked at Adams State University while she continued her studies in anthropology while also being active in the Alamosa Historical Society.

Pat is survived by her sister Bette Bryson, brother Steve Bryson, nephew Kevin Bryson, and lifelong friends Hope Reitman, Barbara Ponce, and Jenny Donner-Reichel.
