Bryant Steven Sanders, 32, of Waco went home to his Savior Friday, February 12, 2021.
Memorial Service: 2:00 p.m. Saturday, March 6, at Antioch Christian Church in Odessa
He was born January 30, 1989 in Odessa to Tavi Sanders and Steve Silvas.
Bryant was an avid hunter and fisherman who loved sharing his knowledge with others. He was a gifted musician who could pick up any instrument and teach himself to play it, but his first love was the trumpet and jazz music. Bryant had the best sense of humor and enjoyed pranking the people he loved. He truly lit up a room with his smile and huge heart. He was a generous man who would literally give you the shirt off his back, but he especially loved to cook and grill for people.
Bryant worked in broadcast media and was passionate about delivering the news and keeping people informed. His highest calling and the one he loved most was being a family man. Bryant was a loving and devoted grandson, son, brother, uncle, husband, and father.
He was preceded in death by his father, Steve Silvas; and grandfather, James Sanders.
Bryant is survived by his wife, Lyndsey, and two small children, Morgan and James. He also leaves behind his mom, Tavi Sanders; sister and brother-in-law, Brittany and Sam Lopez; sister and brother-in-law, Stephanie and Michael Mascorro, two nieces, Micah and Layla Mascorro; grandmother, Delta Sanders; three aunts and uncles, multiple cousins, in laws, many extended family members, and friends.
Morgan and James were the light of Bryant’s life and he loved spending time and bonding with them in the kitchen, playing games, learning baseball, watching hockey and Baylor sports, playing the mandolin, hunting, fishing, and running around town.
In lieu of flowers, if you would like to contribute to a fund for Morgan and James, please reach out to Educators Credit Union in Robinson, Texas on behalf of Lyndsey Sanders.

Bryant always lit up a room no matter where he was. He was the kind of guy that would do anything for anyone and helped to make our newscasts great. He had a passion for making sure we had the best product o the air and that continued in Waco. My prayers go out to Kynsey, Morgan, and James. May you always remember fondly the great times you had and the impact he made on your life. RIP my friend.
Words can’t express how I feel about losing Bryant. It’s been years since I’ve been close to the family, but you all were such a sweet part of my life several years ago. It’s like I’ve lost a grandson. My heart breaks for my Tavi, Brittany, and other family I haven’t had the privilege of knowing. We all know he’s in a perfect place but we weren’t through with him, yet! All the memories you’ve shared will make this easier. Just stay in touch with each other, and talk about him! My love and prayers are with all of you! 🥰🙏🏼
