I am so sorry to hear about the loss of B. He was really a super guy and was a fighter to the end. I remember having lots of great times with my cousin as we were growing up. He always wore a smile and had a great out look on life, even in the toughest times. He will be greatly missed by all that knew him. I will always remember the great times and the memories shall never fade. My prayers are with all of you at this difficult time, and the lord took his suffering and he now is at peace. Love always.

I am so sorry to hear of Byron's recent passing. I was just heart broken when I recieved the news. I missed the obituary and did not learn of Byron's passing until Friday morning, April 2, 2010. Dave & I would have definently been at Byron's memorial if we would have known. Please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. Bryon will be remembered by us by his smile, humor and layed back personality. We enjoyed our time with you both, even though those times were few. Please let us know if you need anything, we are just a phone call away. May your memories of Bryon carry you forward during these difficult days ahead.
