Barbara Allen Byrd

I only met her once, I was hanging out with Dalton and we went to visit her. She was the sweetest lady, reminded me of my own grandmother. I might not have known her well but I know her passing is hard on everyone who loved her.

Truly a blessing to the world. I don´t know what I would have done without my grandmother always pestering me to learn more and push myself to be better. Truly my best friend on this planet.

What a pleasure it was to have known both Ma Byrd and Roy. She was definitely one of a kind. She enjoyed the simpler things in life and what it brought. I will truly miss her as she was such a joy to be around. Don´t ask her a question unless you really wanted to know because she was sure to give you a straight answer. Rest in peace!

Any time I see Hummingbirds I´m reminded of the times Diana and I would visit Barbara and set on her back porch. She had lots of Hummingbirds coming to her feeders. Barbara was a beautiful person full of life and love. Her love for gardening I´m sure was instilled in her at an early age by her dear mother Marjorie. I will miss my sister-in-law. I thank God for the wonderful memories. I love you Barbara. May you rest in peace.

I stopped by her house to pick up my cousin Daltons shirt (her grandson) before we went to PBR. I asked her to take a picture with me and she said "no I have a tooth missing". I said "who cares, I will eventually too". We laughed for a solid 2 minutes after that. Her laugh was the most infectious laugh I´ve ever heard. I promise to keep laughing with you and smiling at our memories!

Grandma was such a family oriented person! You would see her light up every time one of her family members came to visit!

My first memory of my Grandma is sitting on her back porch with her while I played with my toys.

A true gem! Smart and so quick witted. An inspiration and role model for me. I love you.

She was a treasure to me, helped me through my father's passing by making meatloaf, mashed potatoes and hard green peas and then nap on her couch. I love you Barb and hold you close to my heart
