LEE KENNETH BYROM

Pete Franklin! How nice of you to chime in with a nice word for Lee. Weren't you two friends in grade school (only a real old person like me could remember that). Nice opportunity to remember you also. Tom

Still very much missed.

Hey Deb.. Just got a March 9th reminder and wanted to remember Lee and hope you are still in good condition for the condition you are in. Tom

Hi, Deb... We were just talking about Lee a few days ago. Then I got this "Remembering Lee" e-mail from Legacy. So I did. Tom

Hi, Deb... I got a message from Legacy today saying, "Remembering Lee Byrom", and I do. Tom Burke

Earliest recollection when I was about 7. Lee and I were chasing PeeWee up Santa Monica Av. Pee Wee shot me at the Rec Center with his Red Ryder B-B- gun. We just about caught him when he threw the gun and it hit me below my right eye. Took 4 stitches but the Doctor had to put me out to do it. Every time the needle with novocaine came towards my eye I freaked out. Still have the scar. I think Lee kept the rifle.

Hello Debby Byrom with a shout-out to Pete Franklin.

I got my little Legacy notice remembering Lee Byrom and of course I still do, and kindly at that. Debby, I hope you're still in touch with our old friends there in San Diego. And Pete, I hope you had a chance to hook up with Rucker.

Remembering Lee today gave me a nice chance to say hello. The COVID crisis can't take that away from us.

Tom

P.S. Debby, I still remember your cool mid-50s...

Hello Pete Franklin,

Although Lee passed a few years ago now, he let us link up. Nice to hear you're still up and running. Yes, I remember your grammar school pals, especially Big John, although I didn't get to know him much until junior high. I continued associating with John, on and off, until his death. Do you know Gary Rucker lives out in La Mesa, probably not too far from you? Gary was always a good guy and did something extra for John just before he died. Gary took some...

Seeing Tom's message brings back so many memories. Lee and I go back to kindergarten. I grew up on Santa Monica St. Ewert Thompson and John Adams are 2 more lifetime friends lost. All will forever be in our memories and hearts.
