I miss you so much my brother. I wish we could just sit and talk and laugh as we use to. Memories come and a tear slides down my cheek. There is an empty space in my heart since you've been gone. I you.

It's hard to believe that has been so long. When you left this world a part of me died. We still grieve deeply, you were he glue that held the family together. We are lost without you. I know that you are with God. I know you are looking down and are proud of your daughters. We love you so, plant a rose for me and send the fragrance down. Until we meet again, know you live in our hearts and minds. I love you brother.

I can't believe you have been gone from earth for so long now, but not a day goes by that I don't think of you. We keep your memory alive. I keep saying to myself, how would Byron do this or what would Byron say I should do. What advice would he give me today. I really miss you and life for me has definitely been alot different. I love you so much Uncle Byron and miss you more with each passing day. I know your garden is growing in heaven and Billy is there with you now.

Uncle Byron, we were not prepared to let you go. I know it is selfish of us. You were a great man and you have been the rock of the family. Not a day has gone by that you haven't been in my thoughts. I know you are at peace and you are surrounded by our loved ones who have passed before us. God bless you, your girls and our family. RIP

Our hearts are broken
As we must lay you to rest
In the days ahead
We will do our best
To comfort each other
And grieve in our own way
Knowing we will join you
In that Kingdom someday.
We love you and miss you. May God hold you as dear to him as you are to us.
RIP Uncle Byron
