Uncle Walt,
It has been a true privilege to know you and call you my uncle. I'm especially grateful that I had the opportuity to spend time with you and Elva in the last few years. I enjoyed interviewing you and learning about your life and the Byrne family. You were quiet the adventurer and very brave to do the many things you did, such as, hopping a train car to California at young age.
I hope you and my dad are finding some old cars and junk to tinker with in your new life.
Love,
Cindy

Walt was one of the kindest and generous men I have know in my life. As a nephew, I fell very lucky to have had an aunt & uncle like Walt & Elva. They picked me up from one of the lowest points in my life and gave me hope and prosperity. I will never forget Walt's "dry" sense of humor.

Aunt Elva and Uncle Walt. Their names are as connected as peanut butter and jelly. Whenever I think of Aunt Elva, I think of Uncle Walt. He wasn't a man of many words- Aunt Elva did most of the talking- but he always had a warm smile and a can of cold soda for his shy, out-of-state nieces. I haven't had the opportunity to visit Aunt Elva and Uncle Walt in many years, but I will always remember him as a gentle, kind, man with an enormous heart. I will continue to think of him whenever I think of Aunt Elva.
Love,
Jenny

Walt was always a peaceful and serene man when we would visit with him and Elva. We enjoyed our visits with Walt and Elva and spent some good times with them in their home. Walt always greeted us with a warm smile and was very thoughtful of us. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to Walt's family, especially his dear wife Elva. Love Katy and family.

Uncle Walt was a wonderful example of a devoted husband, a kind and generous man and a very loving uncle. He was always glad to see family come. We had a nice time visiting with him and hearing of his experiences. He enjoyed traveling and loved reading the newspaper. One of my fondest memories as a child was having Uncle Walt bring us a can of pop from his secret stash in the refrigerator in the basement. He enjoyed spending time with his dear wife, Elva and other family. Uncle Walt enjoyed good food and watching television. I loved making candy and cookies to take to Uncle Walt. He was always so very kind and thoughtful to us when we came to visit. I loved to see him smile and the way his face would light up when he saw Aunt Elva are some wonderful memories I cherish of him. He was a dear uncle and a great example to me. I loved Uncle Walt and I will miss him! Love Marial
