Byrdie lived a full and joyful life, always cherishing the simple pleasures that brought her peace and happiness. She loved sitting on her deck watching the birds, going for walks, golfing, traveling, and playing cards with family and friends.

Known for her warmth and kindness, Byrdie touched the hearts of everyone she met. Her gentle spirit and generous nature left an enduring mark on her family, friends, and community. She was truly the kindest of souls, loved by all who knew her.
