He went on to become the former CEO of Planet Self Storage and was a long-time leader in the self-storage industry.

He was immensely proud of the life he built and especially of his home in North Weymouth, Mass., overlooking the Back River, complete with a dock that brought him endless joy.

Bryce had a deep love for sailing and was rarely happier than when out on the water. He kept his beloved 42-foot Hunter sailboat “Spellbinder” in the Back River, which became the setting for some of his favorite moments. He also adored his Chocolate Labrador Retrievers, who were constant companions. A true world traveler, Bryce loved fine dining and great wine, often joking, “Ask me where I haven’t been.” His curiosity about the world never faded.

Above all, Bryce treasured friendship. His friends were everything to him, and he was known as a loyal, thoughtful, and generous presence in their lives. He was smart, loving, intellectual, and genuinely kind, with an easygoing nature and a wonderful sense of humor that made people feel instantly at ease.
