Byron was a great father for all of the kids on the block of Parkside since I was one of them a friend of Byron Jr. Those memories are great and will be treasured. With as much sympathy as can be expressed.

Mitzie and family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. We enjoyed our visits with you over the years. Being married for 60 years is remarkable. With Byron's passing we should all appreciate how precious life is. He set a good example for all of us to follow. Bryon must have been awfully proud of his family. Looking forward to seeing you when we visit in September
