George S. Bryce, a retired milkman and longtime Glendale resident, has died in Burbank. He was 89.

Bryce died Sunday of pneumonia, said his daughter, Helen Eledge.

He came to California in 1920 and settled in Glendale in the mid-1920s, becoming a U.S. citizen in the early 1930s. From 1945 until his retirement in 1965, he worked as a milkman for Arden Farms, delivering milk products to residents of Glendale, La Crescenta and the Los Feliz area.

He is survived by a son, George N. Bryce of Glendale; daughters Helen Eledge of Sunland and Sandra Clendenen of Walnut Creek, Calif.; brothers Robert Bryce of Penticton, British Columbia, and Andrew Bryce of Vancouver, British Columbia; sisters Jean Lewis, Helen Allen, Isa Allen and Peggy Jensen, all of Vancouver; five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
