I came to know Milton Byrd a few years ago. His every action and every word showed him to be the ultimate gentleman and scholar. Even after all his accomplishments, there was no arrogance. Instead he was sensitive, humble, and always logical. I never heard him say an unkind word about anyone or anything. I am grateful I had the opportunity to know him because he was one of God's most evolved spirits. He lived well and touched many lives.

Dr. Byrd was my inspiration in many avenues - and one of my greatest champions. He encouraged me to do things I never thought I could, and in a great part, because of his confidence in me, I succeeded. He will be sorely missed, and we will always have wonderful memories of him in our family.
