Dearest Family,
We were so fortunate to have had parents who loved us so much. We are even more fortunate that we have each other to endure the loss of them. I love you all so much.

Dear Judy....I have so many memories of your sweet Dad. I remember sitting on your front porch and singing old songs and laughing our heads off. He was so much fun and always treated us like we were his best friend. He and your Mother had their hands full with the Byrne clan but they did a wonderful job! I always felt at home and welcome at the big house....Rest in Peace, my friend...I Love You!!
