Marie Osmond’s 18-year-old son is being remembered in Utah by family as a funny person with a quick wit who taught others about the importance of service.
Funeral services were held Monday in Provo — about 35 miles south of Salt Lake City — for Michael Bryan, the fourth of Osmond’s eight children.
Police in Los Angeles have said Bryan died Feb. 26 in an apparent suicide after jumping from the eighth floor of the Metropolitan apartment building.
About 450 people attended the services, which included a hymn sung by Marie Osmond, Donny Osmond and five of their siblings.
One of five children adopted by Osmond, Bryan previously used his adoptive father’s last name, Blosil. Court records show a judge had granted a petition for a legal name change.
