Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 23 Journalists Share Posted April 23 Funeral arrangements have been confirmed for Taylor Made Farm's Josh Bryan, who passed away on Apr. 22 from complications from jaw surgery at the age of 33. Visitation will take place on Thursday, Apr. 24 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Kerr Brothers Funeral Home, 3421 Harrodsburg Road in Lexington. Funeral services will take place Friday, Apr. 25 beginning at 1 p.m. at Mary Queen of the Holy Rosary Catholic Church, 601 Hill N Dale Road, Lexington. Bryan will be laid to rest at Sunset Memorial Gardens, 3250 Versailles Road in Frankfort. Born with a rare congenital defect called Goldenhar syndrome that affects the development of the ear, nose, soft palate, lip and mandible usually on one side of the body, Bryan endured better than 15 surgical procedures beginning from the time he was seven weeks old. In a 2024 interview with TDN's Katie Petrunyak, Bryan explained “I didn't really feel like I had much to live for” given his too-frequent visits to the doctor and having suffered the loss of his parents during his college years. Having turned to alcohol, Bryan was accepted into Shepherd's House, a residential drug treatment center with the help of Taylor Made's Frank Taylor, his second cousin. His path to recovery was documented by Petrunyak as part of TDN's 'Road Back' series. “He was loved by everyone in the industry,” Taylor told TDN's Sue Finley on Tuesday. “He impacted a lot of people. Had a heart of gold. He was dealt a bad hand and played it to perfection. Our hearts are broken.” The post Funeral Arrangements Set For Josh Bryan appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
