Danny R. BYERS

My friend and client for 23 years..we had many conversations while Danny got his hair cut...and my husband Larry Barcellos and myself shared great bike stories with Danny ... I remember one time going down to Danny`s house, Senior and I went there for a reason to do with a ride that we were going on. I don´t even remember the actual circumstances of why we were there. But I got to tell you when he showed us his classic little man cave, I was so impressed. I have never seen a room perfectly...

Thank you for your service to our country. Rest In Peace.

Danny and I and a multitude of other young men, still boys in many ways, fired the boilers that propelled the engineering plant and everything else that worked on the USS Midway. We worked as hard and as long as anyone ever worked during our time aboard, becoming life long friends while negotiating the Ming Court Hotel in Singapore, Bougie Street, the Japanese WWII, caves of Yokosuka Naval Base, and numerous two or three day port calls at Subic Bay, with occasional visits to Hong Kong and...

Uncle Danny was the uncle who bought lots of fireworks for my kids and let them shoot them off. He brought his boat all the way to Montana to share with his nephew Greg who had just had heart surgery. He was truly loved by all of us. He was a son our Dad never had. When I heard his voice on the answering machine yesterday, it was good to hear him when he was well. He was more than my sister's husband, he was like a brother to me. Forever young, Danny Byers. You will always be in my heart
