“He stepped away from his position to tend to his health and to spend time with his family – his wife, Shirley; his children, Ian, Preston, and Tracy (McLellan); and his grandchildren. They were by his side throughout his final days and were with him when he passed into his final rest,’ said a release.
“All who knew Bryn loved him and will miss him, but most especially those at NLC who grieve his loss.”
The college is planning a memorial service in the coming weeks.
