Staci Rae Bryant

On the morning of October 16th, 2024 Staci Rae Bryant left this world doing what she loved most: spreading joy through the beauty of flowers. Born June 23rd 1973 in Greenville, South Carolina, Staci was deeply loved and cherished by her parents: Debi and Billy Bush and Jerry and Deb Bryant. From an early age, she found delight in helping others and spreading warmth to everyone she met. A proud graduate of Wren High School, she went on to Furman University, where she participated in the band before returning to her roots to lead the family business with immense joy and pride. Staci was unforgettable; her infectious and unwavering positivity left a lasting impression on all who crossed her path. She never met a stranger, greeting everyone with a “Hi Friend” and leaving them with “Go do something fun!” Her kindness and compassion extended far beyond her immediate circle; she touched the lives of many with her selflessness. Staci’s passion for running her parents’ flower shop was matched only by her love for learning new things, which she approached with eagerness. Beyond her dedication to Expressions Unlimited, Staci made significant contributions to her local community through coaching youth cheerleading and teeball. Most Saturdays, she could be spotted with her classic truck, Ruth, at Trailblazer Park with her adoring husband Tim, sharing their love of music and food with their beloved friends and family. Together, they created countless memories that will forever warm our hearts. She is survived by her husband, Tim Westbrooks, son, Zach Westbrooks (Taylor) and beloved granddaughter, Millie. She was a loving sister to Brad Vest (Christine), Constance McCroskey (Adam), Jessica Allen (Doug), Derek Bush (Lauren), and Teresa Knight (Bernie). She cherished her time raising Josh (Kayla) and John “Pnut” Westbrooks (Stacey), Bre Hunter (Braxton) and daughter Lela, and enjoyed spoiling numerous nieces and nephews, always finding time to make them each feel special. She also leaves behind lifelong best friend, Stacy Crosby (Jeff), God-daughters Sophie and Gracie, along with her entire Expressions Family. She was a source of support and encouragement for all her family, embracing family with open arms and an energetic spirit. A celebration of life will be held Sunday, October 20th at her happy place, Trailblazer Park, from 1-3pm. Light refreshments will be provided and all who called her friend are encouraged to stop by to enjoy live music in honor of Staci’s life, love, and legacy.
