Entire Byrne Family; You are all such wonderful people and Mary Lou and Phil have so much to do with that. Mary Lou was a wonderful influence on so many people in the simplest of ways. To many, your home always felt like home even though it wasn't and that is all due to Mary Lou. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this very difficult time.

Katie and Eileen; Please know that you and your families and your Dad are in all of our prayers. It seems like only yesterday that our Katie and then Rachel were across the alley and playing with you two. You also were very sweet to Molly before we moved to Texas. What Fun memories.
Your Mom was so special and you are both a deep and wonderful reflection of her charm and grace.
Loving Hugs, Bert & Sheila Christensen plus,
Katie, Rachel, Molly and John
