Molly Bryant, a Trussville native, drowned in the ocean in Orange Beach in 2003. Bryant, 16 at the time, would have been a 2006 Hewitt-Trussville High School graduate.
The Bryant family for the past seven years has sought to make a difference in beach and water safety standards.
“The Bryant Family knows Molly made her mark in this world, but realize she would not want them to end her mission of giving others hope,” a post on the City of Orange Beach Fire Department’s Facebook page says.
