Miss you little brother, you are always on my mind. Every time I go through a box looking for something there's a picture of you. You are missed terribly.

Rest in paradise byrdie. Back in 2005 I was serving overseas in the Marines and was homesick looking for local music on MySpace and found byrdie. I emailed him wanting to buy His music. He wouldn't accept my money and mailed me five albums with one autographed, posters, and shirts for free. He told me to be safe and see me when I get back. That boosted myself and my platoons morale more than you would ever know. I ended up sending byrdie some cammo bdu's in appreciation for showing support. I wonder if he ever recieved it? Wish i could of met you an say thank you. Semper Fidelis brother. Rest easy. Cpl. David Haynes

Rest in power Byrdie. You & Tony were so close & both ended up passing much too soon. You were more like brothers, & I remember how heart broken you were when we lost him, so hopefully you two were reunited in a better place--continuing to make beautiful music. Much love always❤

Rhyme in peace Byrdie. Listening to your music still helps bring people together. You're the only artist I've shown my little sister that she's begging to get more. For that I thank you.
