Kennedy Anne Bright, infant (2026)

With heavy hearts and endless love, we announce the birth of precious Kennedy Anne Bright, who was born sleeping on Thursday, May 28, 2026, at Taylor Regional Hospital. Though her time here was far too brief, Kennedy Anne was deeply loved and will forever remain in the hearts of her family.

The family humbly asks for continued prayers, love, and support during this unimaginable time.


Kennedy Anne is survived by her loving parents, Colton Matthew Bright and Madison Lee Berczynski. She is also cherished by her paternal grandparents, Matthew Keith Bright, Stacey Hicks, Heather Barnes, and Derek Bishop; maternal grandparents, Jennifer Claywell and Eric Melton, David & Nikki Berczynski; paternal great-grandparents, Keith Bright and Debbie Carter Mitchum; and maternal great-grandparents, Loretta and Richard Fedash and George Russell Claywell.

She is lovingly remembered by her aunts, Alivia Rowe and Abigail Melton; her uncles, Austin Berczynski and Hudson Berczynski; and special cousins, Tanner and Sophia Barnes, Lauren Barnes and Brooks Wood, and Haylee Claywell and Blake Wright, and Jackie Fletcher, great-aunt.

Kennedy Anne was preceded in death by her great-uncle, Jeffery Claywell, and great-grandmother, Ann Melton.

Though Kennedy Anne never opened her eyes to this world, she was surrounded by love every moment of her life. Her tiny hands and tiny footprints have left an everlasting mark on the hearts of all who loved her. She will always be remembered as a beautiful and precious blessing whose memory will live on forever.

Memorials are suggested to be donations to the Taylor Regional Hospital Womens Center and may be made at the funeral home.

L.R. Petty Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements. Online condolences and service details at www.lrpetty.com.
